This is why I’m running with overcommit 2 and a different ratio per server purpose. …though I’m not sure why we have to think about this in 2025 at all.

- worthless-trash 1y agoI'm assuming that you monitor the service closely for OOM then adjust with demand ?
- baq 1y agoyeah pretty much, also configuring memory limits everywhere where apps allow it. some software also handles malloc failures relatively gracefully, which helps a whole lot (thank you postgres devs)
- worthless-trash 1y agoIve spent the last day thinking about that, I really can't see any big negative side effects, the only issue that I'd have is being notified of OOM conditions, and that would just be a syslog regex match. Great plan.
