9896.0. "Virtual Memory" by NNTPD::"[email protected]" (Ludmila Mala) Tue May 20 1997 19:06

1) I need to know, what is the largest amount of virtual memory that can be
allocated
in the program. I am not talking about the kernel vm_maxvas kernel parameter,
but the amount that can be reserved when the application is running.

2) What is the impact of setting the mapentries to a large value, eg 60 to 200
000 on 
performance. Can this be measured?

3) What are the internal data structures used in processing the mapentries
tables ?

4) Does increasing the size of physical memory help the performance in systems
with 
large mapentries?

Thanks for any ideas.

Regards,

Ludmila

	Didn't somebody just these questions a couple of days
	ago?  Repeatedly asking the same question does not
	often improve the chances of getting the attention
	of someone that knows the answer.

Yes, I am the culprit. I lost my bookmark, and when I did search for it,
I could not find it. As we had some problems on our server few minutes
after I posted it, I thought it did not make the grade. I have discovered
the note later, when I was reading notes in sequential order, a bit too 
late.

The original topic is 9862.

Ludmila
