?Hi
???? I encounter a problem recentely. My system supports USB strorage and
other network applications.
? ?? But after I put a file to usb storage, it will consume some many
momory.
(buffer + cache).
? ?? And these buffered memory can not be reclaimed(use free command).
So I want to know how to reclaim the buffer memory in a short time.
Google for ./sys/vm/drop_caches
