[arc-discuss] Re: capped-memory,

[Ben Rockwood]

I can't comment on mem-sets, I too would like an update on that work.

The big Duckhorn integration was snv_56, in which the following ARC cases were integrated:

    * PSARC 2006/496: Improved Zones/RM]Integration
    * PSARC 2006/598: Swap resource control; locked memory RM improvements
    * PSARC 2006/660: rcapadm zone option 

All 3 of these will be present in S10 Update 4.

CPU Caps followed behind in snv_61 (2004/402) (ncpu's property).  This has been excluded (came too late I think) from Update 4 and will no doubt be in Update 5.  [Let me clarify, it wasn't in the beta and the beta is now closed.  I suppose it could be added, but I nothing I've seen externally suggests that it will.]

CPU, Memory and Swap capping of zones is currently in production usage at Joyent and has been since the day the appropriate SX:CE releases were made available.  We are ecstatic about all of these integrations.  Several hundred containers have been deployed using these controls and we have nothing but praise. 

More information is available in the OpenSolaris Resource Control community forums/list.
