A lot of it should be fairly simple.  We have tons of pagecache-intensive
workloads.  But we have gaps when it comes to the VM.  In the area of
page replacement.
Umm, page replacement is about identifying the working set
and paging out those pages which are not in the working set.

None of the benchmark examples you give have anything like
a working set.
What we need is a short C program that similates a working set.  I
believe we discussed such a thing briefly at Ottawa.

This is just random-fu.  The main challenge is making it short and
sweet.
