Subjecttest3-pre7 keeps 8-10 Mb FREE all the time?
Hi - I just tested out test3-pre7.  It feels pretty nice, except that
it...

keeps 8Mb free?

I did add a small patch from Manfred Spraul:

&left_over, &cache_cache.num);
But I'm not sure how this would have an effect...
In test3-pre6 I got some OOPSES, from BUG() in dcache.h.
But I don't THINK I had this problem...
