Subject: [RFC 3/3] test program
Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:13:58 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1326788038-29141-4-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1326788038-29141-1-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.org>
This test program allocates 10M per second and when
memory pressure notify happens, it releases 20M.
I tested this patch on 512M qemu machine with 3 test program.
I saw some swapout but not too many and even didn't see OOM.
It obviously reduces swap out.
