#14492: Tiered memory allocation restricts available memory -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: unode | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime System | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: | Keywords: memory ulimit Operating System: Linux | Architecture: x86_64 Type of failure: Poor/confusing | (amd64) error message | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): I suppose we could set an upper bound on the reservation size. That is, exponentially increase up to, e.g., 32GB and then from there allocate 32 GB at a time. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14492#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
