Hi
after some more testing we found that:
1- the patch works also with mem=32MB (i.e. it is a winner also for
low mem machines)
2- Interactive performance looks great, I can run an mmap002 with size
96MB in an 32MB machine and use an ssh session in the same machine
to do ls/vi/... without dropouts, no way I can do that with
previous pre-*
3- The system looks really stable now, no more processes killed for
OOM error, and we don't see any more fails in do_try_to_free_page.
Later, Juan.
PD. I will comment the patch tomorrow, I have no more time today,
sorry about that.
