[Moosefs-users] Questions about data caching

[Christian S. <chr...@se...>]

Hi,

in man pages I read that the mfsmount option mfscachefiles controls preserving file data in cache. My first question is, which file data cache is meant, the page cache of the kernel or an other MooseFS specific cache?

In MooseFS version 1.6.17 was an automatic data cache management introduced. My second question is, if with this data cache is meant the same cache as described above (kernel or MooseFS cache)?
