Hi!

I have an old SS5 with 128 MB memory. Sometimes, the kernel seems to have s=
ome=20
memory problems:
Mar 24 07:03:05 ferdi kernel: bitmap out: size 8800 used 6242 off 1248 len =
16=20
align 16 count 8816
Mar 24 07:03:05 ferdi kernel: srmmu: out of nocache 4096: 2252800/1597952
Mar 24 07:03:05 ferdi kernel: VM: killing process sendmail

Here is an actual memory overview:=20

ferdi:~# cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal:       125256 kB
MemFree:          6744 kB
Buffers:         17836 kB

Writeback:           0 kB
Mapped:          40640 kB
Slab:             7736 kB
Committed_AS:   141536 kB

VmallocTotal:    25600 kB
VmallocUsed:       500 kB
VmallocChunk:    25060 kB

These problems are reproducible under high load (e. g. updating spamassassi=
ns=20
bayes-database while receiving a lot of mails). What can I do to fix this=20
behaviour? Are 128 MB memory not enough? My x86-bases systems have no=20
problems with less memory...
