-# Writeback: Writing Out Dirty Pages
+## IRC, freenode, #hurd, 2013-03-04

+ <braunr> mcsim: is it correct that a pager (as from libpager) object is
+ created per file ?
+ <mcsim> braunr: hello. Yes.
+ <mcsim> braunr: At least this applies to ext2fs

+
+ <braunr> and btw, here is a little update about my roadmap: while reading
+ mcsim's patches, i've got to know libpager a bit more, and i think it's
+ perfectly possible to add writeback throttling without a heavy rework
+ <youpi> good :)
+ <braunr> so i intend to work on that after the pager related patches (large
+ store and neal's one) are merged
