Is there a way to flush specific files from cache? I already know of the trick to flush all caches (sync && echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches), but that's not quite what I want
More specifically, I have a redis server (a noSQL database) which dumps a few gigs of data to the HDD every few hours. The data is dumped as a backup and is not necessary for normal redis operation. The problem is that I see a pretty big chunk of RAM used for caches, but the system for some crazy reason decides that it's time to start swapping out some pages (even though I have vm.swappiness=0). Anything I can do besides flushing everything? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
