Should link to Lazlo Belady ?

The table in the article gets a little confusing. It appears from the table that the pages gets "moved" to a different frame for each consequtive timing, especially so when you labelled "Frame" at the side. I believe you are illustrating the FIFO queue data structure such that the head of the queue is the 'oldest' page and the tail of the queue the 'youngest' page.

By Phail_Saph,

 The first chart is wrong. It will still lead to 10 interrupts. If you want an example that is correct the previous two charts in the history tab are correct.

I don't understand the table at all. cagliost 15:47, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't understand the table me neither. It needs reconstruction considering an other visualization method for the memory frames —Preceding unsigned comment added by Teohaik (talk • contribs) 19:28, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] previously believed

 Previously, it was believed that an increase in the number of page frames
 would always provide the same number or fewer page faults.

i dont get the "fact" (?). the more data you have to hit the bigger is the chance you miss. eg smaller the chance you hit the stuff. its probability. it's an uproved claim and hard to believe one.
