Created November 7, 2016 22:29
Notes on linux memory management options to prioritize and control memory access using older ulimits, newer cgroups and overcommit policy settings. Mostly as an attempt to keep a desktop environment responsive and avoid swap thrashing under high memory pressure.

Overview

Some notes about:

  • Explaining why current day Linux memory swap thrashing still happens (as of 2016).
  • Mitigating "stop the world" type thrashing issues on a Linux workstation when it's under high memory pressure and where responsiveness is more important than process completion.
  • Prioritizing and limiting memory use.
  • Older ulimit versus newer CGroup options.

These notes assume some basic background knowledge about memory management, ulimits and cgroups.

How to Attach EBS Volume in EC2 on Amazon Linux

Making an Amazon EBS Volume Available for Use

  • Right click newly created volume and attach to your instance.
  • Reboot EC2.
  • sudo file -s /dev/xvdb (where xvdb is the name of the volume)
  • if the above command shows data for the device, there is no file system on the device and you need to create one.
  • Make filesystem using sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/xvdb.
  • Create a mount point directory for the volume using sudo mkdir mount_point (sudo mkdir /data)
  • Mount the volume at the location: sudo mount device_name mount_point i.e. sudo mount /dev/xvdb /data
  • To mount this EBS volume on every system reboot, add an entry for the device to /etc/fstab file
