Not entirely sure, but I would expect COSS to need about the same amount of memory as the other cache_dir types, or less, not more.. > > Disable the swap.

Well, swap has a purpose which is enabling more efficient use of the memory to avoid needing to have very much memory, but that purpose isn't really relevant to your server as you have more than sufficient amount of memory. It may be possible to tune the VM appropriately to your needs, but disabling the swap acheives the same thing with less efforts. > Ok but this is strange.

Only make significant changes when the memory usage has been stable for a week or two.. It's absolutely no fun to run out of memory. Apart from causing some significant service disruptions it may also cause you to loose the entire contents of the cache. Better to be safe than sorry. Regards Henrik
