Particular SMB shared memory systems?
Don't you just use something like the posix shm calls?
I see squid's cache in /dev/shm:
Ishtar:/dev/shm> lh
-rw-rw-rw- 1 70K Jul 27 17:14 jack-shm-registry
-r-------- 1 65M Jul 26 17:51 pulse-shm-1005231492
-rwxrwxr-x 1 32 Jul 27 17:14 sem.jack_sem.5013_default_system*
-rw------- 1 29M Aug 2 18:53 squid-cache_mem.shm
-rw------- 1 8.1G Aug 2 18:53 squid-squid-page-pool.shm
I doubt the kernel expects only 32k allocations... especially
since the only other default on x86 is 8k (going the 32bit compat route).
What's using 32KB?
