Why would there be no space when I have 24GB of memory?
1. Any process, including the kernel can only allocate up to 4 GB of
memory on a 32-bit system (since a 32-bit integer can only hold that
many values)
2. The kernel is further constrained so the user programs can get enough
memory
3. Kernel structures for tracking and using memory are also stored in
kernel memory. 24 GB of memory with PAE probably "eats up" a lot of
those. I think you'll need to increase kmem_size (see
http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSTuningGuide for an example - ignore
ZFS-specific things).
Hi Ivan,
It made no difference. Still the same error.
Is anyone actually using PAE with FreeBSD 6.2? I have found practically
no information using
google.
Steve
