Re: Slab: in /proc/meminfo not corrent in recent kernels?

I'll do some slabinfo
capture/comparison immediately on a fresh reboot, and just to single

Ok, done sooner than I thought.

The runlevel 5 ones aren't from separate boots, I just telinit 5'ed
after grabbing meminfo and slabinfo. And the dmesgs are really from
/var/log/messages, but who's counting. (And yes, I know /dev/hdg is
dying, no system stuff on there) Unfortunately, I don't know the
significance of (m)any of the entries in the slabinfo, although I do
note that dentry_cache accounts for roughly 10 MB of the difference...
Hopefully some kernel gurus can tell if this behavior is a problem or
not. Or maybe a side effect of debugging stuff?
