Hi,

 

I've noticed that locking.tdb file grows over time. This happened while running 
the following test:

- delete locking.tdb and restart samba

- connect a linux client using cifs mount

-run the following script on the client:

 

#!bin/bash
 
for i in `seq 1 130000`;do
                echo $i
                echo ===
        KB_rand=$(((RANDOM % 300 + 1)*(1000))
        dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/cifs/files/smallfile$i bs=$KB_rand  count=1
done
 

So there's only one client writing many files.

 

The locking.tdb file grew to 2 megs, at which point space was exhausted (I put 
the temp files in tmpfs, perhaps a mistake :)).

 

Is this to be expected? what causes this increase? does it saturate at some 
point? is it possible to configure it?

 

Thanks,

Uri.
