hi

Has anyone used minix operating system before? if yes did you modify
the cache buffer to get a good performance?

I am new to the minix and dont know really how to measure the
perferomance by altering the buffer cache.

Any explanation on operation of buffer cache(minix), and how to add
codes to buffer cache to get better performance will be great.

Well, you could check out comp.os.minix

I've heard this guy, Linus, used to hang there, but has since moved on.
