Any thoughts on how to figure this out (disk buffer size)? For some reason, my system (2xAMD 2800+, 2Gb RAM 2.4.21 - /proc/meminfo) only shows a usage of 88kb of 'Buffers' usage, and that never changes. My 'Cached' usage is 1.7Gb. I've hit the kernel mailing list, and the one response I got said don't worry about it :-(
Cheers,
Rob
