Dear Dave, > Your configuration has never worked. This isn't a regression ... > ... does not mean that we expect it to work. Do you mean that CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is deprecated, should not be used; that all development is for 64-bit only? > ... 64-bit kernels should basically be drop-in replacements ... Will think about that. I know all my servers are 64-bit capable, will need to check all my desktops. --- I find it puzzling that there seems to be a sharp cutoff at 32GB RAM, no problem under but OOM just over; whereas I would have expected lowmem starvation to be gradual, with OOM occuring much sooner with 64GB than with 34GB. Also, the kernel seems capable of reclaiming lowmem, so I wonder why does that fail just over the 32GB threshhold. (Obviously I have no idea what I am talking about.) --- Thanks, Paul Paul Szabo psz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au/u/psz/ School of Mathematics and Statistics University of Sydney Australia -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
