Subject: [PATCH] Bump /tmp size back to 50% of RAM
|
||
|
|
||
|
This should be enough to fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1856514.
|
||
|
But the limit should be significantly higher than 10% anyway. By setting a
|
||
|
limit on /tmp at 10% we'll break many reasonable use cases, even though the
|
||
|
machine would deal fine with a much larger fraction devoted to /tmp.
|
||
|
(In the first version of this patch I made it 25% with the comment that
|
||
|
"Even 25% might be too low.". The kernel default is 50%, and we have been using
|
||
|
that seemingly without trouble since https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/tmp-on-tmpfs.
|
||
|
So let's just make it 50% again.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
See 7d85383edbab73274dc81cc888d884bb01070bc2.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(Another consideration is that we learned from from the whole initiative with
|
||
|
zram in Fedora that a reasonable size for zram is 0.5-1.5 of RAM, and that pretty
|
||
|
much all systems benefit from having zram or zswap enabled. Thus it is reasonable
|
||
|
to assume that it'll become widely used. Taking the usual compression effectiveness
|
||
|
of 0.2 into account, machines have effective memory available of between
|
||
|
1.0 - 0.2*0.5 + 0.5 = 1.4 (for zram sized to 0.5 of RAM) and
|
||
|
1.0 - 0.2*1.5 + 1.5 = 2.2 (for zram 1.5 sized to 1.5 of RAM) times RAM size.
|
||
|
This means that the 10% was really like 7-4% of effective memory.)
