In most cases your machine will become totally unusable long before the 4G space is used, and often it would be more desirable to have the OOM killer kill something before it gets to that stage. When configuring machines with more than about 512M of RAM I never use 2*RAM for swap size for this reason. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
