Hi all, I'm having problems with Baloo again. I'm not sure exactly what the requirements are for it, but I must be doing something wrong. It essentially renders the system unusable.
I finally caught it in this state - CPU is minimal, and memory isn't too bad (for this box) - baloo_file was using 1.5G. What surprised me was the output of lsof: baloo_fil 1808 mark *881r VREG 110,3406168081 20453 44020 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/value.c baloo_fil 1808 mark *882r VREG 110,3406168081 306 44006 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/Makefile.am baloo_fil 1808 mark *883r VREG 110,3406168081 14123 30810 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/Makefile baloo_fil 1808 mark *884r VREG 110,3406168081 2225 44015 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/strbuffer.c baloo_fil 1808 mark *885r VREG 110,3406168081 243238 44360 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/libjansson.a baloo_fil 1808 mark *886r VREG 110,3406168081 11784 44356 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/utf.o baloo_fil 1808 mark *887r VREG 110,3406168081 66568 44352 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/load.o baloo_fil 1808 mark *888r VREG 110,3406168081 1439 44013 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/jansson_private.h baloo_fil 1808 mark *889r VREG 110,3406168081 80232 44358 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/value.o baloo_fil 1808 mark *890r VREG 110,3406168081 33800 44350 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/hashtable.o baloo_fil 1808 mark *891r VREG 110,3406168081 13152 44009 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/dump.c baloo_fil 1808 mark *892r VREG 110,3406168081 897 44016 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/strbuffer.h baloo_fil 1808 mark *893r VREG 110,3406168081 10368 44354 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/strbuffer.o baloo_fil 1808 mark *894r VREG 110,3406168081 6214 44011 /usr/home/mark/cudaminer/CudaMiner/compat/jansson/hashtable.h etc... The number of lines was quite impressive though: $ lsof | grep 1808 | wc -l 983978 What is it doing with all these files? Is this likely the cause of the unresponsive system? Mark
