Hello list,
when I set the flag VIRT_MEM in /etc/vservers/<vservername>/flags,
the vserver seems to consume very fast all of its swap-space, as observed
with 'free' inside the vserver. I am running Horde-3.1.4 under apache-2.2.3
with php-5.2.0 on the vserver, every reload of the Horde-webpage takes some
400 MByte from the swap (and nothing from Mem, which remains nearly
completely free). As a result, I get 'out of memory'-errors very soon.
The master-server does not see the change in used swap-space at all, 'free' on
the master shows 0 swap-usage, even if the vserver shows 3.5GByte of
swap-usage.
I am using vserver version vs2.0.2wcr on Linux version 2.6.17.13 under Debian
etch, and util-vserver version 0.30.212-1
The content of /etc/vservers/<vservername>/flags is:
sched_prio
virt_mem
virt_uptime
virt_load
virt_cpu
When I leave out the VIRT_MEM flag, the swap-space on the vserver remains
empty, and Memory-usage increases by reasonible values, but 'vserver-stat'
still shows a VSZ of 15.9+ (whatever that means).
Does it help to just leave out the VIRT_MEM-flag, or is there some real memory
management problem behind this?
Thanks for any help,
Andreas
