释放Linux内存
[root@server test]# free -m

[root@server test]# cat /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

[root@server test]# echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

以下是使用说明:
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches (since Linux 2.6.16)
Writing to this file causes the kernel to drop clean caches,
dentries and inodes from memory, causing that memory to become
free.

To free pagecache, use echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; to
free dentries and inodes, use echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches;
to free pagecache, dentries and inodes, use echo 3 >
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches.

Because this is a non-destructive operation and dirty objects
are not freeable, the user should run sync(8) first.
