| |
Hi!
I've been running some rather evil tests.
Recipe: 32Meg RAM 128Meg swap 2.2.3 kernel
run make -j and watch. Peak swap usage gets to 50Meg or so, then it starts dying with vfork: out of memory. [Can someone reproduce these, please?]
Does it mean we have problems with memory fragmentation? Do this problems need to be solved in 2.2 series?
