Re: Fwd: Re: Buffers VS Page Cache

[George Shuklin <george.shuklin@gmail.com>]

When I say 'almost no documentation' I means "every article I found
about /proc/meminfo do not describe difference between Cache and
Buffers".

For book link - thanks. I believe if nothing will be in it, thats means
something like 'linux console code'. I hope it not.

Thanks again.
