--- Comment #3 from [email protected] --- I've now updated to RC4 - while there has been an improvement, the issue is not totally resolved. FreeBSD leader.local 10.1-RC4 FreeBSD 10.1-RC4 #19 r273922: Sat Nov 1 16:36:48 ACDT 2014 [email protected]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Compression would appear to be a factor. I disabled compression and installed the new world, in single user mode wired memory increased slower and with swap enabled rose to 6.8G and stayed there for an hour uptime. At 26 minutes uptime the wired amount jumped from 3.8G to 6.5G. Without swap enabled processes were terminated after the drop in free ram. With compression enabled the wired amount jumped from 421M to 6.7G in 4 seconds at 3 minutes uptime. Back in multi-user mode I was able to run two copies of the script for several hours. I saw the wired amount rise over 7G a few times and while the system slowed down it remained responsive. Unfortunately the damage was done and the machine was of limited use. I could start simple things like man and ls but ps top and su failed to start. This extended to X apps, I could start an xterm instance but not gnome-terminal, firefox or chrome.. leaving me to hit the reset button. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
