--=-DRf5w5/xGxVaE7qa+pzF Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello, I was impacted by a memory leak that has been fixed by this patch: http://people.freebsd.org/~rmacklem/namei-leak.patch What I noticed when the server was paging is that it seems that only about 500MB of my 4GB swap partition was used before crashing. I was wondering why it didn't take the whole 4GB up to the crash of the server because of lake of memory (that would let me more time to react). Is there such king of setting that prevent a process to put more then 500MB of data in swap ? Thanks in advance for your answers, Micka=C3=ABl Can=C3=A9vet --=-DRf5w5/xGxVaE7qa+pzF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAlBNsW4ACgkQZjBmN5Hi/YbbEwCeLSsK1DTG+m84tUYu2CnHM3jr bO8AniG9F7DpMQI1AkGt7g9XOQSBzPEB =02hf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-DRf5w5/xGxVaE7qa+pzF--
