I noticed that with 4.0 I'm running out of memory on HP A500 (1G RAM) and HP RP3410 (2G RAM) parisc machines during gentoo "revdep-rebuild -ip". Each time free shows less free memory until OOM killer visits us (and first revdep-rebuild after nontrivial emerge compilation loop kills the smaller box).
3.19 did not seem to have this problem. Nothing in the dmesg besides OOM killer activating. I reran it, leaving cat /prov/vmstat, cat /proc/meminfo and slabtop -o running in loop (each 5 s). revdep-rebuild -ip was also running in the loop, just checking the binaries and library linking info. The results are at http://kodu.ut.ee/~mroos/slabtop-log http://kodu.ut.ee/~mroos/meminfo-log http://kodu.ut.ee/~mroos/vmstat-log Anything else I can provide to pinpoint it? -- Meelis Roos (mr...@linux.ee) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
