+ drop-caches whattodrop
+
+This instructs the guest kernel to drop its page cache,
+and/or dentries and inode caches. The parameter C<whattodrop>
+tells the kernel what precisely to drop, see
+L<http://linux-mm.org/Drop_Caches>
+
+Setting C<whattodrop> to 3 should drop everything.
+
+This automatically calls L<sync(2)> before the operation,
+so that the maximum guest memory is freed.
+
+=head2 equal
+
+ equal file1 file2
+
+This compares the two files C<file1> and C<file2> and returns
+true if their content is exactly equal, or false otherwise.
+
+The external L<cmp(1)> program is used for the comparison.
