    Meta-data test, time find on 11 million inodes (designed such that
    the filesystem meta-data blows out main memory):

    time find /build > /dev/null
    df -i /build
    Filesystem 1K-blocks      Used     Avail Capacity  iused
    BUILDX     897966080 236821248 661144832    26% 11383321

    Without swap cache:

    4.417u 56.161s 11:20.23 8.9%    16+66k 0+0io 8pf+0w		(steady state)
    4.565u 56.035s 11:27.37 8.8%    16+66k 2+0io 36pf+0w	(steady state)

    Remount to clear VM page caches, then enable swap cache:

    4.655u 48.334s 2:14.90 39.2%    15+65k 2+0io 12pf+0w
	(hard drive activity almost gone)
	(SSD activity ~30-50MB/sec, mostly reads)

    4.507u 49.059s 1:50.05 48.6%    16+66k 2+0io 8pf+0w		(steady state)
    4.663u 48.912s 1:49.35 48.9%    16+66k 2+0io 8pf+0w		(steady state)
	(basically no HD activity, SSD 30-60MB/sec all reads)

	Steady state reached w/ approximately 4.7GB in the swap
	cache.
	    test28:/root# pstat -s

	    /dev/da1s1b      16777088  4719420 12057668    28%    Interleaved

    iostat shows SSD is about 55% busy.  The cpu is 50% busy, so the
    lack of meta-data read-ahead is an issue (maybe something I can
    work on for HAMMER).
