| Bluefoxicy | why does Google Maps lock up either Chromium or my whole desktop? | 00:37 |
| Bluefoxicy | you know, by maxing out RAM usage whenever I open a tab to it and try to scroll wheel in | 00:38 |
| sithlord48 | its got a fevor and its only cure is more RAM? | 00:38 |
| Bluefoxicy | I've also found that disabling swap doesn't help: RAM bloats, pushes out page cache, then the hard disk thrashes re-reading libraries CONSTANTLY. Why isn't there a page cache lock to OOM in favor of freeing page cache? | 00:39 |
| Bluefoxicy | Seriously I have 16GB RAM. The kernel is too stupid to understand that 50MB of page cache and 16.950GB of working memory is going to kill the machine. | 00:39 |
| Bluefoxicy | ok driving off to starbucks with books to study from. | 00:42 |
| sarnold | Bluefoxicy: you could always use ulimit -m to limit chromeium to just eight or ten gigs or whatever | 00:43 |
| sarnold | Bluefoxicy: maybe ulimit -v would be better. either way it's worth a shot | 00:44 |
| Bluefoxicy | sarnold: it doesn't work that way | 02:14 |
| Bluefoxicy | sarnold: you can limit the VMA--preventing mapping of file-backed segments et al, which is used for file caches and so forth, which is managed by the kernel--or you can limit nothing. | 02:15 |
| Bluefoxicy | Trying to limit resident set size of memory per-process or per-user on Linux is really useless. | 02:15 |
| Bluefoxicy | Second, the point is that the kernel will swap-thrash when you eat up memory even when you have no swap. | 02:15 |
| Bluefoxicy | sarnold: btw, ulimit -m doesn't do anything | 02:17 |

| mlankhorst | infinity: those kind of patches should really have been submitted with a cc to stable, to get it in 10.3 automatically | 04:32 |
| sarnold | Bluefoxicy: aww, I thought the -m limits had been put back around 2.6.17 era :/ | 06:34 |
| infinity | mlankhorst: Fair enough, not my patch, but can we carry it anyway? :P | 07:50 |
| mlankhorst | sure | 11:42 |
| mlankhorst | I won't carry it, but I can commit it to mesa | 11:42 |

| geofft | xnox: Logan_: can your capnproto delta be submitted to Debian? want me to file a bug in the BTS? | 19:51 |
| Logan_ | lemme check | 19:51 |
| geofft | Debian has 0.4.1, so it seems like it'd be nice to be able to sync | 19:52 |
| Logan_ | it looks like my delta was already incorporated | 19:52 |
| Logan_ | they're using dh-autoreconf in Debian now as well | 19:52 |
| Logan_ | not sure about all of Dmitri's stuff, though | 19:53 |
| Logan_ | *Dimitri | 19:53 |
| geofft | yeah, Debian doesn't appear to be multiarching it | 19:54 |
