It seems like it's in the 3.1 series kernels

Values default to 1, 15, 100, but can be reset with the command you suggested. I'll let you know if I notice any changes.

I know the device (what _is_ the right generic noun for the files under /proc, anyway?) is there, but:
Values default to 1, 15, 100, but can be reset with the command
The patch to which I'm referring isn't one to add the device, but rather to reset the default parameters to 1, 5, 10.
I'll let you know if I notice any changes.
Thanks.
If you can't wait or don't want to mess with a kernel patch, just run the following as root:
/sbin/sysctl -w vm.pagecache="1 5 10" echo "vm.pagecache = 1 5 10" >> /etc/sysctl.conf

I have noticed the same erroneous behavior in my 3.3 install as what is mentioned in the two buzilla reports. I had to use the "echo 1 10 15 > /proc/sys/vm/pagecache" command tog et it back under control.
