[Moosefs-users] Chunkserver memory requirements

[Jesus <jes...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have a chunkserver with 4 million chunks. The mfschunkserver process is
consuming almost 1 GB of RAM, is it normal?

I am using MFS 1.6.20-2 in Debian squeeze servers (64 bit 2.6.32-5 kernel)

I asumed the RAM in the chunkserver was not very important (i.e, it was not
dependent on the number of chunks).  As opossed to the MFS master, which
caches all the metadata in RAM.

Thanks and kind regards,
