--- Comment #2 from [email protected] --- The use of large amounts of KVM by these AIO parameters is a concern tome and I have been testing with more moderate values to see if these make VBox stable. I have now reduced the two biggest changes to: vfs.aio.max_aio_queue=8192 vfs.aio.max_aio_queue_per_proc=1024 So far, after two days of use, my guest system has remained stable. I should also note that the maximum number of AIO processes is reduced from 32 to 8 which will tend to limit the KVM consumed substantially. I will also be looking at the 10x increase in process lifetime. It is conceivable that this is either critical to working around the problem or is unneeded. Those more familiar with the inner workings of the AIO daemons might have a better idea than I do. I will continue to adjust parameters, but must do that slowly as it can take some time before the problem pops up depending on disk load (whether from VBox or other activity). I am testing on a older (5 yrs) laptop with an 2.5 GHz Sandy Bridge i5 CPU and standard HGST disk 1TB disk, so disk I/O will not be impressive. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-emulation To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
