In mean time I've tried 4.3.0 kernel + patches (the same as before + one more) on second server which runs even more rsnapshot processes and also uses xfs on md raid 6. Patches: http://sprunge.us/DfIQ (debug patch from Tetsuo) http://sprunge.us/LQPF (backport of things from git + one from ml) The problem is now with high order allocations probably: http://ixion.pld-linux.org/~arekm/log-mm-2srv-1.txt.gz System is doing very slow progress and for example depmod run took 2 hours http://sprunge.us/HGbE Sometimes I was able to ssh-in, dmesg took 10-15 minutes but sometimes it worked fast for short period. Ideas? ps. I also had one problem with low order allocation but only once and wasn't able to reproduce so far. I was running kernel with backport patches but no debug patch, so got only this in logs: http://sprunge.us/WPXi -- Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz, arekm / ( maven.pl | pld-linux.org ) -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
