https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D206492 Mark Millard <markmi@dsl-only.net> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |markmi@dsl-only.net --- Comment #2 from Mark Millard <markmi@dsl-only.net> --- If you use a swapfile on a file-system/partition that gets a mix of other IO then see Bug 206048 - 11.0-CURRENT -r293227 (and others) arm (rpi2/BeagleBone Black) amd64 etc: swapfile usage hangs; swap partition works for a problem that may apply to 10.x as well when using things like: file=3D/var/spool/swap/swapfile file=3D/swap0 --unless those files are on their own file systems/partitions not used for other (used) files. It may be worth testing if the involved 10.x context(s) hang before settlin= g on this sort of placement of the file. One of the comments suggested a command like: stress -d 2 -m 3 --vm-keep was sufficient to show the problem on at least 11.0-CURRENT amd64 contexts.= I guess that command is from the port sysutils/stress . It would actually be good to have 10.x comments in Bug 206048 reporting how such testing went if someone tries it. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
