  comment = {Using five applications from the Perfect benchmark suite, they
  studied both implicit (paging) and explicit (file) I/O activity. They found
  that the paging activity was relatively small and that sequential access to
  VM was common. All access to files was sequential, though this may be due to
  the programmer's belief that the file system is sequential. Buffered I/O
  would help to make transfers bigger and more efficient, but there wasn't
  enough rereferencing to make caching useful.}
