Hi Dave,
Sorry to make you misunderstand. I meant the RAM/SWAP buffered and cache
since sync only clear the filesystem buffer. like when you use the system,
you have like 200 megs of memory (RAM) and it ate up and only like 1meg
available and I want to clear it up so there are more can be available for
the system. I understand it will eventually clear itself sometime, but I
still don't get the mechanism of how that work on Linux, I can't picture it
:(.
when you type "top" look at the top right hand corner which show how many of
your memory are buffered. and cached it includes the swap as well.
Thanks
Thang

Is "sync" what you're looking for?
