ATM is a new tool designed to allow you to better explore the System File Cache use on your system. In addition to some monitoring functions, on newer OSs you may also modify your system cache behavior.

The System File Cache is a component of the operating system kernel. It works in conjunction with the Memory Management sub-system and the IO sub-system to cache files, or more acuratly portions of file, in RAM.
