I'm talking about the thing that gets flushed out during a sync(). I used to know how to find out back when I was working with an old System V release 1 machine, but SunOS looks pretty different (maybe it's not a constant?), and I don't remember anyway. (I don't have source, by the way.) Internet: jpc@avdms8.msfc.nasa.gov
