Hey Suriya,
OS cache aka buffer cache tuning looks like a
dead end.
There should be some other way of improving the file
access speed, somewhere i read about "ramfs-based
drive", do you have any idea.
Thanks

How did you measure? The kernel implements a buffer
cache to store portions
of the disk in memory. Google for "linux buffer
cache". I got this link [1]
which was good.
