Subject: 2.4.18 freeze on 4G memory.
Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2002 15:49:08 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <000e01c27bfb$06d3d970$31036fa6@zhoulin> (raw)

  I have a 4*Xeon 700A+2G memory server running reiserfs+2.4.18+openwall
patch.
Our service is running with large processes(> 4000) and a little heavy
disk I/O, and 
the server's load is about 3.x to 4.x.
  But last month after I increased 2G memory to 4G, the server is always
froze every two 
or three hours. After 5-10 minutes, it can be alive again.
  I have changed to RedHat kernel 2.4.18-17, and it has the same problem
but a little well--
it is froze only several seconds. And the average load is above
20,higher than 2.4.18.
  Kernel build with 4G memory support + reiserfs + smp support + intel
e100 driver module.
  Any advice? Thank for help.
