Linux has poor default memory overcommit behavior. Rather than
2786
2786
failing if it can not reserve enough memory, it returns success,
2787
2787
but later fails when the memory can't be mapped and terminates
2788
- the application. To prevent unpredictable process termination, use:
2788
+ the application with <literal>kill -9</>. To prevent unpredictable
2789
+ process termination, use:
2789
2790
<programlisting>
2790
2791
sysctl -w vm.overcommit_memory=3
2791
2792
</programlisting>
2793
+ Note, you will need enough swap space to cover all your memory needs.
