OpenVZ wants to account _shared_ pages in a guest different than separate pages, so that the RSS accounted values reflect the actual used RAM instead of the sum of all processes RSS' pages, which for sure is more relevant to the administrator, but IMHO not so terribly important to justify memory consuming structures and sacrifice performance to get it right YMMV, but maybe we can find a smart solution to the issue too :) best, Herbert > -- Dave > > _______________________________________________ > Containers mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/containers - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
