i have a question about the Memory Management in AIX 6.1.
I have
- 128 GB RAM and
- 70 GB Page Space.
The application i am running on this machine is doing some operations in perl. These are done only once a day and uses both memory and paging space. My problem now is that when the application is finished with its operations the memory and page space are not released but hold. And this means ofr the next time that i will get a memory and page space overflow. I heard something about AIX 6.1 having a feature that does not allow the memory to be freed in order to do a faster processing for the next time. Someone told me about the parameters maxperm and minperm and that these values control this feature.
Anyone has some suggestions which values i should use?
this is the vmo -a output:
Best,
Haichao
