Hi All, We've just run into the dreaded "OOM Killer". I see that on Linux >2.6, it's recommended to turn off memory overcommit. I'm trying to understand the implications of doing this. The interweb says this means that forking servers can't make use of "copy on write" semantics. Is this true? Does it matter for a server running just postgres? -- Andy Chambers Software Engineer (e) achambers@xxxxxxxx (t) 954-682-0573 -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
