The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/kernel-resources.html Description:
Hi, it's a mistake in 18.4.4. Linux huge pages (also in 9.4 and 9.5 documentation). Example how to count number f huge pages says: 6490428 / 2048 (PAGE_SIZE is 2MB in this case) are roughly 3169.154 huge pages, so you will need at least 3170 huge pages: It's very rare that PAGE_SIZE is 2MB. It's more common situation that the value is 4096KB. But it's not a problem. The VmPeak should by divded not by PAGE_SIZE but by Hugepagesize listed by cat /proc/meminfo | grep Hugepagesize. -- Sent via pgsql-docs mailing list (pgsql-docs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-docs
