+ help
+ Cleancache can be thought of as a page-granularity victim cache
+ for clean pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm
+ (PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough
+ memory. So when the PFRA "evicts" a page, it first attempts to use
+ cleancacne code to put the data contained in that page into
+ "transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
+ addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
+ time-varying size. And when a cleancache-enabled
+ filesystem wishes to access a page in a file on disk, it first
+ checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,
+ the page is copied into the kernel and a disk access is avoided.
+ When a transcendent memory driver is available (such as zcache or
+ Xen transcendent memory), a significant I/O reduction
+ may be achieved. When none is available, all cleancache calls
+ are reduced to a single pointer-compare-against-NULL resulting
+ in a negligible performance hit.
+
+ If unsure, say Y to enable cleancache
