Flush filesystem cache

Hi
If you are running Linux and using cooked filesystems for your datafiles I think you can get your system admin to run the following to flush out the filesystem cache and help support the theory of the secondary SGA:
sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
....might be easier to get done than a reboot....
I guess there can also be caching at other layers that cannot be disregarded (SAN controllers etc).
