Does anyone have an idea of what a safe minimum stack size is for couch? I have it on a linux openVZ slice, and OVZ counts something called "allocated memory" which AFAICT most closely resembles the "writable/private" stat found with pmap -d.
At start-up, beam.smp has 12 threads; with a default stack of 8MB each, that's 96MB. After a while it grows to 25 threads and about a 1/4 GB of "allocated memory". I'd expect that to be the minimum using a default stack size. So I cut the system stack size to 256kB, which reduced my overall mem usage by more than half, and WRT to couch, about 90%. Everything seems okay, but am totally unfamiliar with erlang, and was just wondering if someone in the know here can provide some reassurance. -- "Enthusiasm is not the enemy of the intellect."
