 I'll play around with Gump's support for running a shell script after a
 Gump run in order to kill any surefirebooter java processes still alive.

The simplistic script I've added seems to work reliably, I've re-enabled
nagging on vmgump.

Disabled Nagging on vmgump

2010-08-17 Thread Stefan Bodewig
Hi,

just before the current Gump run started I performed an upgrade on
vmgump which updated openjdk (I was hoping it could fix the batik
issues).  Instead of being helpful it seems to now terminate all forked
VMs after a certain amount of time - unless anything else is responsible
for this, that is.

Until this has been resolved I have disabled nagging completely.

Linux's oom-killer is repeatedly terminating java and python processes.
Looking through the logs I see it has happened in the past as well but
happens way more often this time around.

Any ideas?

After the Gump run was finished there still where about ten or fifteen
java processes active, all of them running
surefire-booter-something.jar.  They may be leftovers from when Gump
terminates a build process, I'll keep an eye on it.

After I killed the processes the machine immediately reclaimed several
hundred MB of swap space.

The current run has been able to build ooxml-schemas, one of our bigger
memory consumers and memory is no real issue (still about 1.8GB of swap
available).

Given the machine has 1GB of physical memory and 2GB swap space we
should be able to finish Gump withou any memory upgrade.

I'll revisit the surefire-booter case and add a cron job to kill such
processes if necessary.
