It's likely a misfeature. Container sees the available RAM, count RAM used by its processes, and calculating free memory from them two with no way to know that it's not the only one using the memory. I'd suggest you always limit container memory, even if only marginally (say, 40-60% of available RAM), if you know you'd be running heavy processes inside them from time to time. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Tuesday, September 27, 2016 18:53:13 Sorry for my terrible english... _______________________________________________ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
