I'm not saying everything is fine. I'm saying that whatever it is, it's not memory. Something may be causing a lot of disk access, which may create a lot of cache entries, but that's a symptom and not the cause; cache doesn't actually hurt you.
I've asked several times now. What exactly is your server serving?
The high load average is odd, especially when there's no obvious reason for it. Keep checking top once in a while, see if anything appears.

Hi.
This might be a strange request, but does anyone have any idea on a simple shell script that would use more and more memory as it ran? Like a purposeful leak.
I want to test the behaviour of an already running program when the machine runs out of memory.
Thanks! (4 Replies)

fs_getcacheparms
FS_GETCACHEPARMS(1) AFS Command Reference FS_GETCACHEPARMS(1)
NAME
fs_getcacheparms - Displays the current size and usage of the cache
SYNOPSIS
fs getcacheparms [-help] [-files] [-excessive]
fs getca [-h] [-files] [-excessive]
DESCRIPTION
The fs getcacheparms command displays the current size of the cache (which can be in memory or on disk), and the amount currently in use.
The reported statistics are from kernel memory, so the reported size can differ from the setting specified in the /etc/openafs/cacheinfo
file on a machine using a disk cache, if the fs setcachesize command has been used to alter cache size.
OPTIONS
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
-files
Displays the current number of cache files in use, and the maximum available, as well as displaying the current cache size.
-excessive
Displays detailed cache statistics, including the flags set on each cache element, and the distribution of cache entries by size.
OUTPUT
The output reports
AFS using <amount> of the cache's available <size> 1K byte blocks.
where <amount> is the number of kilobyte blocks currently used to cache data and status information, and <size> is the total current cache
size.
EXAMPLES
The following example shows the output on a machine with a 25000 kilobyte cache.
% fs getcacheparms
AFS using 22876 of the cache's available 25000 1K byte blocks.
The following shows the output when asked to show file information.
% fs getcacheparm -files
AFS using 0% of cache blocks (897 of 200000 1k blocks)
1% of the cache files (79 of 6250 files)
And finally, the following detailed information can be obtained by using the excessive flag
% fs getcacheparm -excessive
AFS using 0% of cache blocks (897 of 200000 1k blocks)
1% of the cache files (79 of 6250 files)
