Re-enables the RSS limiting, and the routine is now tail-recursive, making it much more safe (eliminates the possiblity of kernel stack overflow.) Also, the RSS limiting is a little more intelligent about finding the likely objects that are pushing the process over the limit. Added some sysctls that help with VM system tuning. New sysctl features: 1) Enable/disable lru pageout algorithm. vm.pageout_algorithm = 0, default algorithm that works well, especially using X windows and heavy memory loading. Can have adverse effects, sometimes slowing down program loading. vm.pageout_algorithm = 1, close to true LRU. Works much better than clock, etc. Does not work as well as the default algorithm in general. Certain memory "malloc" type benchmarks work a little better with this setting. Please give me feedback on the performance results associated with these. 2) Enable/disable swapping. vm.swapping_enabled = 1, default. vm.swapping_enabled = 0, useful for cases where swapping degrades performance. The config option "NO_SWAPPING" is still operative, and takes precedence over the sysctl. If "NO_SWAPPING" is specified, the sysctl still exists, but "vm.swapping_enabled" is hard-wired to "0". Each of these can be changed "on the fly." |
