Hello,
I am trying to do a merge from one branch to another. Among other
changes, on the changed branch I have added a large, 1 GB file
(packaged oracle -- don't ask). It is a binary type file -kb. During
the merge, all of the RAM and some SWAP is taken and then an out of
memory exception
Hi -
Few thoughts on overcoming hardwre limitations.
Not related to just solving virtual memory issues.
If you are hitting hard limits on a box one other
way out is to have a cluster of CVS repositories in
your LAN. You could then distribute the load across
CVS repositories.
This could be done

You need to increase the amount of (virtual) memory available to the CVS
server. Exactly how to do that is highly system dependent.

Don't store large binary files in a source control system. :-)

Is there some system setting, like a minimum vm size,

suggestions ?

Thanks for the info. I have checked that I have enough of swap and tmp

there is some limitation from cvs side itself.

You wouldn't be running out of swap space, would you? What happens if you
reduce the number of processes running on that machine, increase the size
of the swap partition, and clean out any swapfs filesystems you might have?

One of my users complained she got this message whenever she checked out or updated in her module. I found that she had committed two of her binaries; one was 11Mb, the other was 7Mb. When I removed those files, the checkout/update worked.

We had this problem on a BSD box here. Turns out there were some
restrictions in place on how much swap space a user program could use, and
cvs was exceeding it. Our IS guy made some changes on the machine and it
solved the problem.

- RCS has a compilation option that limits its activities to disk, rather
than mapping large files into the CPU's address space. If that option is
available in CVS, try rebuilding
