FlashCache - a general purpose writeback block cache for Linux
- philips 16y agoHow is this different to the project it is based on, dm-cache[1][2]? Briefly skimming the documentation it seems that the first difference is the eviction policy: LRU in dm-cache vs FIFO in FlashCache (although LRU is an option). Anyone know what prompted the name change and code fork?
