Any advice?
We're running several varnish instances.
All of them x86-64 though, so YMMV.
For the busiest machines, stack size has been set to 256kb, by putting
'ulimit -s 256' in the init script.
IIRC, we started doing this because we saw increases in the
'thread_limited'
counter.
We saw that varnishd couldn't create new threads,
even if the hard limit (thread_pool_max) hadn't been reached yet.
Check:
http://lists.varnish-cache.org/pipermail/varnish-misc/2009-August/002977.html
These particular instances are constantly running 7k threads,
occasionally going to 8-9k. With 24 Gb of RAM.
