That's not a build option. There are _some_ virtual memory tuning knobs, but they're not especially effective. The best way found so far is to simply shrink the virtual storage size of the guest to the point where it starts paging out unused pages (hopefully to a vdisk), leaving the rest for active stuff.

Folks, does anyone know how to build a Linux 2.4.x kernel that has Linux file caching disabled? I want to disable Linux's file caching and let CP's minidisk caching functions do it instead, and to reduce the virtual storage requirements for the guest.
