Initial number of pages reserved for compressed cache is set by the ! kernel parameter "compsize=N", where N is a memory size like the input accepted by "mem=" parameter. For example "compsize=48M" sets ! the initial compressed cache size to 48 megabytes. If unsure, say N here. --- 386,394 ---- system performance. ! The maximum number of pages reserved for compressed cache is set by ! the kernel parameter "compsize=N", where N is a memory size like the input accepted by "mem=" parameter. For example "compsize=48M" sets ! the maximum compressed cache size to 48 megabytes. It resizes by ! itself as much as it is actually needed (ie, resizes on demand). If unsure, say N here. *************** *** 402,427 **** If unsure, say N here. - - Resize Compressed Cache On Demand - CONFIG_COMP_DEMAND_RESIZE - - Select this option in case you want compressed cache to start with a - minimum number of pages and resize on demand. It means that - compressed cache will grow uo to its maximum size while the system - is under memory pressure and will only start swapping out when it - reaches that size. As soon as the reserved pages for compressed - cache are no longer used, they are freed to the system, decreasing - compressed cache size. - - The maximum size is defined by the very same kernel parameter - "compsize=N", where N is a memory size like the input accepted by - "mem=" parameter. For example "compsize=48M" will set the maximum - compressed cache size to 48 megabytes. - - In the case this option is enabled, the user cannot any longer - change compressed cache size via sysctl entry - (/proc/sys/vm/comp_cache/size). - - If unsure, say Y here.
