onebadrobut: Killing Mac OS X Swapping : How To Disable dynamic_pager

Was anybody able to figure out why "purge" was not working?

I experienced the same problem after booting into 64bit SL.

frog: Mac OS Disk Cache - A Piece Of Crap

nospam@example.com (frog) — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 01:59:51 +0100

I've got the same issues with my Powerbook and 4 GB of RAM. If I do any kind of high-disk-activity stuff (compiling large libraries with XCode or handling more than a few hundred photos in Aperture) my free memory plummets.

On most other UNIX-style systems I've used, this is normal and expected, and as you open new applications or as your application expands in memory, the file system cache reduces in size to ensure no unnecessary swapping.

This does not seem to happen on Mac OS X; if I have an album of say 1000 photos in Aperture, as I browse through each one, loading it into memory, possibly making changes etc, it will eventually start swapping memory to disk, even though the Aperture process itself may only reach 1 GB, and my total memory usage from all processes may be about 1.5-2GB. I can have 2 GB "unaccounted for" in terms of processes (i.e. it's being used for filesystem cache), and yet it'll start swapping to disk as I access new files.

This is utterly ridiculous! The filesystem cache should be speeding things up, not slowing them down by having to swap out memory to the disk it's attempting to improve performance on!!!

en fait, pour avoir du bleu dans le ciel, il faut quand même du bleu, même leger dans l'image....

J'ai mis les liens vers les deux profiles que j'utilise...

Attention le rendu parait vraiment très saturé, loin de la douceur que vous semblez affectionner

Ce qui serait sympa, ce serait de nous en faire profiter en le mettant à dispo...
Sinon, dans LR 2.5, j'utilise D2X Mode I avec une légère correction sur le rouge et je trouve ça déjà pas mal du tout. C'est doux, les teintes et les contrastes sont délicats, et c'est ça que j'aime...
LR 3 a l'air d'améliorer encore les choses (en particulier dans les ombres).

"thus is not visible unless I look specifically at it."

I tried closing a bugs once mentionning that it was "not visible unless you look at it". Did not work very well.

Wow, this seems so simple. Could we get an update from any of you who've done this? Maybe we haven't gotten one because your computers won't boot now!
