Message-ID: <20011019061914.A1568@athlon.random> (raw)

The vm part in particular is right now getting stressed on a 16G box kindly
provided by osdlab.org and it didn't exibith any problem yet. This is a trace
of the workload that is running on the machine overnight.

It seems still very responsive despite of the load (and also despite being at
the other side of the Atlantic :).

If it swaps too much please try:

	echo 6 > /proc/sys/vm/vm_scan_ratio
	echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/vm_mapped_ratio
	echo 4 > /proc/sys/vm/vm_balance_ratio

Thanks!
