High Page In and Executable page In
Hi,
Currently I'm experience very high page ins on my system running on solaris 10. From vmstat, the page ins figure is very high, further drill down shows the page ins are from file system and occassional spike in executable page ins. Details as follow: Code:
oracle@perch:/files>> vmstat 5 kthr memory page disk faults cpu r b w swap free re mf pi po fr de sr m1 m1 m2 m2 in sy cs us sy id 3 0 0 7268376 5110432 1041 2719 729590752414 753 753 0 0 6 0 6 0 7766 100603 12925 56 19 25 5 0 0 11818608 9292016 451 918 13573290886586 3 3 0 0 2 0 1 0 10952 161811 14018 80 20 0 2 0 0 11818432 9292960 385 792 13459633370179 2 2 0 0 1 0 2 0 10053 165300 13082 81 19 1 5 0 0 11819720 9294472 322 623 12844506325972 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 11025 162384 14302 81 19 0 3 0 0 11819400 9294664 468 1132 12864149119550 0 0 0 0 5 0 5 0 10555 163452 13193 78 21 1 5 0 0 11818912 9295784 430 926 11488048016240 3 3 0 0 1 0 1 0 10935 158379 14086 80 20 0 2 0 0 11819560 9296824 381 906 12037450017951 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 10671 165815 13422 81 19 0 5 0 0 11819968 9298064 440 863 13209752927129 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 11219 158202 14557 80 20 0 6 0 0 11819776 9297168 500 953 12490715053962 2 2 0 0 2 0 1 0 11777 157736 15521 80 20 0 Code:

Actually I was trying to be facetious. Numbers like that make me think that vmstat must be broken. If I ignore the pi and assume that the rest of the numbers are valid, I don't really see any problem. You have swap and free physical memory. Page-outs are low and so is the scan rate. So pi is impossible and everything else looks good. I guess I would look for a vmstat patch though.
But if swap is disappearing, do a "df -k". /tmp uses swap for sure and I think maybe /var/run or something like that does as well. Could /tmp be eating your swap area? If it's a program, the size as reported by ps would be growing over time. Also I often see people over-allocate shared memory to Oracle. So when Oracle is running I do a "ipcs -mb" to look at that. |

Yes, these pi and fpi numbers can't be but bogus. 20000 TeraBytes per second is simply unrealistic.
Is your system up to date with patches ? Especially one that fix a Veritas bug: Huge PI in vmstat Last edited by jlliagre; 11-16-2008 at 10:30 PM.. |

@reborg, it's running on vxfs. which may trigger the the high pi bogus numbers. I have another concern is the disappearing swap space. I can see clearly that the free swap space is dropping by the day, but unable to nail down the culprit. any suggestion how should I approach it? thanks for the views all. |
