non-computational

These tunable parameters are used to indicate how much memory the AIX kernel should use to cache non-computational pages.

When a page fault is taken on a file due to an instruction fetch, only the non-computational file transitions to the computational state.

The minperm limit indicates the target minimum amount of memory that should be used for non-computational pages.

The maxperm tunable parameter indicates the maximum amount of memory that should be used to cache non-computational pages.

Non-computational pages are pages containing file data for files that are being read and written.

A file is either completely computational or non-computational.

Of these 16529 non-computational file pages, 16503 of them are client pages.

A working storage page is never marked as non-computational.

So, in the above example, there are 16529 non-computational file pages mapped into memory.

These non-computational pages consume 2. 2 percent of memory.
