I see, thanks. I thought that 'disk cache' was something on disk, such as swap space. The server is already maxed out on RAM: $ free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 14980 14906 73 0 167 5293 -/+ buffers/cache: 9444 5535 Swap: 0 0 0 -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com
