So?
zone.max-swap can be used to limit the amount of memory that processes in a zone can reserve. Note that this has little to do with swap devices - the term swap in this sense means virtual memory. In order for a process to use RAM, those pages of RAM need to be backed by something that can be paged. Anonymous pages (those typically obtained via malloc()) are charged against malloc. The memory needed to hold executables and libraries are backed by the disk where they reside. -- Mike Gerdts Solaris Core OS / Zones http://blogs.oracle.com/zoneszone/ _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
