Subject: [dpdk-dev] Big spike in DPDK VSZ
Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2020 13:18:05 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAGxAMwD6Wtfi=C2Txwjfk0zhFvRzeqBu7mFfE8ayh=EJi2aU-A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I have been using DPDK 19.08 and I notice the process VSZ is huge.

I tried running the test PMD. It takes 64G VSZ and if I use the
'--in-memory' option it takes up to 188G.

Is there anyway to disable allocation of such huge VSZ in DPDK ?
This is resulting in huge core files and I suspect that the problem will
compound on multi-NUMA machines.

Please help

Regards,
Siddarth
