Hi Damjan, The issue here is that huge core files are generated, which take up a lot of space and the system down time is huge too. Even if I compress it, I will have to de-compress wherever I try to debug it and the disk space requirement will be huge. It will be interesting to get a hint on what is exactly contributing to such high virtual memory.
I have created a jira for this: https://jira.fd.io/browse/VPP-1810 Also, please find attached the startup conf I am using.
