I'm running - a poudriere build - of a list of ports - on 12.0-RELEASE-p10 - on a 4 core+4 hyperthreads CPU, an Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1230 v6 @ 3.50GHz - with 32 GB RAM - zpool with 2x 500 GB SSDs as a mirror and right now, this can be seen: last pid: 90922; load averages: 5.02, 5.14, 5.73 up 0+03:53:08 19:31:05 82 processes: 6 running, 76 sleeping CPU: 60.6% user, 0.0% nice, 2.1% system, 0.0% interrupt, 37.3% idle Mem: 4598M Active, 2854M Inact, 11G Laundry, 6409M Wired, 6375M Free ARC: 3850M Total, 1721M MFU, 2090M MRU, 665K Anon, 19M Header, 19M Other 3406M Compressed, 3942M Uncompressed, 1.16:1 Ratio Swap: 18G Total, 18G Used, 396K Free, 99% Inuse, 68K In So: Swap is full, approx. 6 GB memory is reported as free. This is surprising. Can I somehow tune this in any way, so that the memory available is used for the build ? Or is the problem somewhere else ? Running similar builds on 12.0 without patches reported swap_pager_getswapspace(24): failed messages. -- pi@opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 One year to go !
