hi,

this is not an install question, at least I don't think it is.  sorry.

I've got some greedy apps running that don't let go of allocated memory 
when they complete.  at least that's what I think is happening.  I'm 
looking at top output to troubleshoot.

for "Mem:" info, top shows "in_c" and "in_d".  these appear to 
correspond to /proc/meminfo's inact_dirty and inact_clean.

is there anyway to clear inact_dirty memory?
