What do the values in /proc/sys/vm/* in 2.0 mean?

The numbers in "freepages" are documented in the source code
(and I've used them to tune a few machines), but the rest are
a mystery to me.

This might be something to add to the Documentation directory, I think.

The joy of engineering is to find a straight line on a double
logarithmic diagram.
