style='font-size:12.0pt'>Hi<br>
<br>
1.
Is there any benefit of increasing the value of PKG_MEM_POOL_SIZE
and SHM_MEM_SIZE ? <br>
<br>
/*used only if PKG_MALLOC is defined*/<br>
#define PKG_MEM_POOL_SIZE 1024*1024<br>
<br>
/*used if SH_MEM is defined*/<br>
#define SHM_MEM_SIZE 32<br>
<br>
<br>
2. I've compiled my ser with <br>
<br>
#define PKG_MEM_POOL_SIZE 1024*1024*512 <br>
<br>
ans started using ser -m 100 option with children=4 and listening on two ips<br>
<br>
when I started memory usages was seems to fine for few days(3-4) less then
1GB but after that nealy
1.7 - 1.8 GB of memory usage and when I do top:
<br>
<br>
16165 root 15 0 617m 54m 36m S 0.3 2.7 0:16.34 ser<br>
16167 root 15 0 617m 54m 36m S 0.3 2.7 0:15.89 ser<br>
16164 root 15 0 617m 54m 36m S 0.3 2.7 0:16.29 ser<br>
16166 root 15 0 617m 54m 36m S 0.7 2.7 0:16.16 ser <br>
16172 root 16 0 617m 53m 35m S 0.0 2.7 0:05.04 ser<br>
16168 root 16 0 617m 52m 34m S 0.0 2.6 0:00.09 ser <br>
16170 root 16 0 617m 52m 34m S 0.0 2.6 0:00.07 ser<br>
16169 root 16 0 617m 52m 34m S 0.0 2.6 0:00.08 ser<br>
16171 root 16 0 617m 52m 34m S 0.0 2.6 0:00.10 ser<br>
16163 root 16 0 617m 52m 34m S 0.0 2.6 0:00.01 ser<br>
16145 root 25 0 617m 52m 34m S 0.0 2.6 0:07.80 ser<br>
<br>
it shows 11 instance of ser with above info. If I sum up <br>
617 * 11 = 6787 MB of memory but in my machine I've only 2 GB Physical RAM and
it never uses Swap ? <br>
if 54 * 11 = 594 ? but free -m and top shows more memory usage ?<br>
<br>
can please explain me in brief . I'll be really thankfull. B'coz of this I'm
facing may problem. <br>
<br>
thanks<br>
