OK. Please, always monitor and send /proc/meminfo. I assume that the dirty-memory clamping is working OK with ext2 and that perhaps it'll work OK with ext3/data=writeback. All very odd. I wonder how to reproduce this. Maybe 50 ext3 filesystems on regular old scsi will do it? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
