[Bug 1107617] udev: fix default value of udev.children-max
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1107617 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1107617#c18 --- Comment #18 from Franck Bui <fbui@suse.com> --- (In reply to Martin Wilck from comment #16)
What a silly move of upstream. The very same guy has reviewed my locking patch, so he should be at least remotely aware that being "CPU-hungry" is not the issue. But well, he's looking at what's happening on his laptop. This is how upstream works, right? "It's fine on my laptop, so what are those 32TB-RAM people lamenting about?"
Well I wouldn't be as categorical because as you know it's pretty hard to find a good value that would please all setups. And 8 doesn't seem too bad for desktops. But given that the rational of the commit message is not really convincing, I would say that it was not considered thoroughly. That said I'm wondering if we shouldn't make the default value configurable at compile time so at least servers would use a lower value (let's say 2) than desktop (8) by default. This way we would let TW and such follows what upstream does while SLE distros will always keep a more conservative value. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
