Dear Alasdair:
When I try use dd to general 8GB file to lv ,and "out of memory" still
happen.
And in slabinfo "dm-snapshot-ex" always keep high count , may be "1193248"
more higher .
Have any way to change dm-snapshot-ex memory use trans to swap or les memory
use ? Thanks!!
Regards,

Thanks for your help. We have capture the info about you want in the

But the speed is very slow ,DISK IO throughtput just down to 1.68MB/s .
Have any to solve it?
Thanks!!

What is the output of these three commands?
dmsetup info -c
dmsetup table
dmsetup status
The current snapshot implementation does require a lot of kernel memory to
store each snapshot's exception table, which grows as there is new I/O.
Eight snapshots means eight times the memory needed by one snapshot.
Are you using the default chunk size? If so, try a larger one (lvcreate
-c).
