Unexplained cache RAM drops on Linux machine
- by FunkyChicken
I run a CentOS 5.7 64 machine with 24gb ram and running kernel 2.6.18-274.12.1.el5.
This machine runs only Nginx, php-fpm and Xcache as extra applications.
Since about 3 weeks my memory behavior on this machine has changed and I cannot explain why. There are no crons running which flush anything like this. There are also no large numbers of files…
