still running - far longer than before. Miklos, I think you're right.

Thanks for testing.

I suggest to get this patch in and submit a new kernel for 11.1 RC3 asap.

The problem with this is: while this might fix the allocation problems, it will
probably cause swap over NFS to go into a deadlock once in a while.

I still don't fully understand what's happening. My original analysis can't be
right, because the number of allocated slab pages are limited by the number of
threads doing the allocation. So the huge slab usage is still not fully
explained.
