Happy to! I see there’s still some back and forth on the specific patches. Let me know which kernel version and which patches I should start trying out. I’m loosing track while following the discussion. In preparation: I’m wondering whether the known reproducer gives insight how I might force my load to trigger it more easily? Would running the reproducer above and combining that with a running PostgreSQL benchmark make sense? Otherwise we’d likely only be getting insight after weeks of not seeing crashes … Christian -- Christian Theune · ct@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx · +49 345 219401 0 Flying Circus Internet Operations GmbH · https://flyingcircus.io Leipziger Str. 70/71 · 06108 Halle (Saale) · Deutschland HR Stendal HRB 21169 · Geschäftsführer: Christian Theune, Christian Zagrodnick
