Hi.
I've heard a lot about Direct I/O ability of XFS, but how can I use in "real
life". I'm particularly interested in using Direct I/O with Oracle - I don't
have too much RAM to put both Oracle's cache and buffer cache in it.
And I still cannot find any FS that let not cache file data, anybody know
this?

Regards,
Andriy
