I like this idea too. I think it is possible with [vmprobe](https://vmprobe.com/filesystem-cache) but I agree would be a great feature to have in vmtouch as well.

Thanks for the patch. You're right there's no great reason to prefer goto here since both these instances are essentially loops. However, IMO it's somewhat nice that the destinations have...

Oops, I can't merge this patch because of conflicts caused in another branch I merged in. I'm going to leave this out for the next release, maybe we can get...

No that is not intentional, thank you for noticing. It's documented in the help output though: -w wait until all pages are locked (only useful together with -d) However, I...

I'm not sure exactly the process on slackware, but if it's running and you're seeing output I guess it installed correctly. Can you please expand on why you don't believe...

> Shoudn't it crawl only "500M" as mentioned in the manual? No, `-m` is supposed to entirely skip files larger than this amount (by default). I suggest not using the...

No worries. `-m` was sort of hack in the first place. People would accidentally crawl a directory with a gigantic file in it and it would grind their system to...

Yes, it's a good idea, thanks! It might be a bit complicated to implement though. We'd have to keep track of the mappings as we make them, then unlock and...

Most systems have pretty strict resource limits on the amount of memory locked, maybe it is hitting those? You could try increasing this (ie `ulimit -l`) or running as root.

I agree on all counts. In fact, I would like to make -d imply -w if possible. Are there any backwards-compatibility problems if we do that? About adding -w to...
