I changed the setup to use the device sda2 and sdb2 with the same prio as swap, now the swap size is 2GB. Now the machine runs stable. My question is why is the oom not funktioning properly. If the machine is in an oom stituation it should kill the process an recover, but it doesen't. why? # oom-killer: gfp_mask=0xd0, order=0 [<c014b768>] out_of_memory+0x2d/0x14d [<c014ccdd>] __alloc_pages+0x207/0x2c8 [<c016189d>] cache_alloc_refill+0x29d/0x491 [<c01615f6>] kmem_cache_alloc+0x41/0x4b [<c01715fe>] getname+0x1a/0xb0 [<c01730ce>] __user_walk_fd+0x12/0x40 [<c016cc48>] vfs_stat_fd+0x19/0x40 [<c02a81de>] do_page_fault+0x346/0x630 [<c016ccfc>] sys_stat64+0xf/0x23 [<c01630e3>] filp_close+0x52/0x59 [<c02a7e98>] do_page_fault+0x0/0x630 [<c0103ddd>] sysenter_past_esp+0x56/0x79 Mem-info: DMA per-cpu: cpu 0 hot: high 0, batch 1 used:0 cpu 0 cold: high 0, batch 1 used:0 cpu 1 hot: high 0, batch 1 used:0 cpu 1 cold: high 0, batch 1 used:0 DMA32 per-cpu: empty Normal per-cpu: cpu 0 hot: high 186, batch 31 used:175 cpu 0 cold: high 62, batch 15 used:53 cpu 1 hot: high 186, batch 31 used:164 cpu 1 cold: high 62, batch 15 used:50 HighMem per-cpu: cpu 0 hot: high 186, batch 31 used:24 cpu 0 cold: high 62, batch 15 used:23 cpu 1 hot: high 186, batch 31 used:20 cpu 1 cold: high 62, batch 15 used:57 Free pages: 134040kB (124644kB HighMem) Active:225122 inactive:710378 dirty:88879 writeback:324447 unstable:0 free:33541 slab:63174 mapped:140 pagetables:1671 DMA free:3936kB min:68kB low:84kB high:100kB active:0kB inactive:4kB present:16384kB pages_scanned:0 all_unreclaimable? no lowmem_reserve[]: 0 0 880 4368 DMA32 free:0kB min:0kB low:0kB high:0kB active:0kB inactive:0kB present:0kB pages_scanned:0 all_unreclaimable? no lowmem_reserve[]: 0 0 880 4368 Normal free:5956kB min:3756kB low:4692kB high:5632kB active:66436kB inactive:533124kB present:901120kB pages_scanned:0 all_unreclaimable? no lowmem_reserve[]: 0 0 0 27904 HighMem free:111764kB min:512kB low:4236kB high:7960kB active:879136kB inactive:2276372kB present:3571712kB pages_scanned:2176 all_unreclaimable? no lowmem_reserve[]: 0 0 0 0 DMA: 1*4kB 2*8kB 2*16kB 1*32kB 1*64kB 1*128kB 1*256kB 0*512kB 1*1024kB 1*2048kB 0*4096kB = 3604kB DMA32: empty Normal: 43*4kB 17*8kB 2*16kB 2*32kB 4*64kB 2*128kB 0*256kB 1*512kB 0*1024kB 1*2048kB 0*4096kB = 3476kB HighMem: 1*4kB 4085*8kB 749*16kB 1827*32kB 1*64kB 1*128kB 1*256kB 0*512kB 0*1024kB 0*2048kB 0*4096kB = 103580kB Swap cache: add 62751133, delete 62521135, find 240316/252271, race 0+22 Free swap = 0kB Total swap = 1052152kB Free swap: 0kB 1122304 pages of RAM 892928 pages of HIGHMEM 83665 reserved pages 193554 pages shared 229999 pages swap cached 88879 pages dirty 324447 pages writeback 177 pages mapped 63174 pages slab 1671 pages pagetables Out of Memory: Kill process 13310 (stress) score 17746 and children.
