hey everyone.

over the last few weeks we have been having some problems with s_vmem and
array tasks.

we submit a task with a memory requirement s_vmem of 2G.
it starts running and I follow it on the machine using pmap

[root@atom08 ~]# pmap -x 19893



hythonRender -f 80 170 -i 1.0 /out/MANTRA1/rs_mantra_pipe/ifd_gen
rnd_lars_main_v001_lars_none.hip_out_ALL_2014-04-14_11.58.21.hip
Address           Kbytes     RSS   Dirty Mode   Mapping
0000000000400000      28      24       0 r-x--  hython-bin
......
ffffffffff600000       4       0       0 r-x--    [ anon ]
----------------  ------  ------  ------
total kB          844844  191828  117452

so that tells me the task is taking about 840M of memory.

If I then have a look at the memory usage in the qacct

$ qacct -j 120429
..
cpu          17.302
mem          10.299
io           2.726
iow          0.000
maxvmem      1.979G

which tells me it was 1.9G. sometimes its more like 2.1G and then the
s_vmem gives the signal.
is there something I'm missing as to how maxvmem is calculated?
