Hello, Fist of all thanks a lot for CompCache. I've a few machines which suffer from too little memory, and compcache seems a great way to expand it a bit :)
I have some troubles understanding the various parameters compcache provides. My machine is equipped with 512MB memory, and I would like to dedicate 200-250mb to compcache, so I set memLimit to 200mb. Am I right that memlimit means the maximum size compcache may allocate from main memory? What I don't understand is why OrigDataSize seems to be more or less fixed at about 300mb, and why only 87mb of memory actually seem to be used, although I set memlimit to 200mb. Even when I start many applications those values won't change much, although the machine already starts to swap a lot (to physical harddisk). Thanks again, Clemens DiskSize: 489982 kB MemLimit: 200000 kB NumReads: 407175 NumWrites: 364944 FailedReads: 0 FailedWrites: 0 InvalidIO: 0 PagesDiscard: 0 ZeroPages: 9852 GoodCompress: 100 % NoCompress: 0 % PagesStored: 76618 PagesUsed: 21781 OrigDataSize: 306472 kB ComprDataSize: 84272 kB MemUsedTotal: 87124 kB _______________________________________________ linux-mm-cc mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/linux-mm-cc
