Is it possible that Basho’s recommendation on vm.swappiness is out of date?
The current recommendation (per http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/ops/tuning/linux/) is still to set vm.swappiness to 0. Based on https://www.percona.com/blog/2014/04/28/oom-relation-vm-swappiness0-new-kernel/ it appears that in kernel 3.5 and up, the behavior of vm.swappiness=0 was changed. Due to that, should we modify our vm.swappiness to 1? Thanks This email and attachments contain information that may be confidential or privileged.
