Hi,
In my case 2 child processes from mtest01w try to allocate 1GB each and
third one allocates around 100 MB.
Both of the first 2 child processes throws this error "errno=ENOMEM(12):
Cannot allocate memory" around 700MB. And third successfully finishes its
job.
Here are some details.
* Actual physical memory: 80MB
* Swap space is 2GB
* /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory is 1
* /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_ratio is 50
Can somebody please tell me why this might be happening?
Regards,
Shashank J Bilgi
