Hello arch@,
I wrote a series of patches that shrink the struct vnode by 124 bytes,
that is, the sizeof(struct bufobj), for filesystems that do not use
buffer cache. For them, embedded struct bufobj is a wasted memory, which
is, with typical 10,000,000 or more vnodes on today busy fileserver, is
quite significant kernel memory save.
