[comp.sys.next] Only 16 buffers

geoff@desint.itcorp.com (Geoff Kuenning) (06/23/91)

I have 24 Meg of memory in my cube.  I happened to reboot today (power
failure), and noticed that Mach only allocated 16 disk buffers,
totalling 128K of RAM.  (I'm running 2.0.) This seems to me to be a
bit on the small side for optimal performance, given the rather large
amount of memory available.  What do other people think?  Is this a
typical BSD number?
