hello -on my workstation running CURRENT (amd64/32g of ram) i've been running into a scenario where after 4 or 5 days of daily use I get an OOM event and both chromium and firefox are killed. then in the next day or so the system will become very unresponsive in the morning when i unlock my screensaver in the morning forcing a manual power cycle.
I have the following set in /etc/sysctl.conf on a stable/13 workstation. Am using zfs with 32GB RAM.
vm.pageout_oom_seq=120 vm.pfault_oom_attempts=-1 vm.pageout_update_period=0 Since setting these here, OOM is a rarity. I don't profess to exactly know what they do in detail though. But my experience since these were set is hardly any OOM and big users of memory like firefox don't crash. -- J.
