Re: Re: eth0: Memory squeeze, deferring packet
Hi Everyone,
I am facing the same probem in 2.4.20. Any idea whats the fix for this
and which version it is fixed ?
Thanks,
Rakupathy.
Well... I doubt the it is (1) because the system was NOT under great
load,
and doesn't have software RAID, and only uses one 100baseT realtek card.
SO... i guess it is (2). Kernel is 2.2.19... i thought it would be
pretty
much stable by now?! damn.
how is kernel 2.4.x now? Do you think they are safe enough for
production
use? Any huge performance increase?
Sincerely,
Jason
