My followup didn't make it, so here's a quick resend:
in that rsync version, after ^C, not all threads are killed, and the remaining one wreaks havoc and eats all memory. NOT A KERNEL PROBLEM, please apologize. (Running ulimit -v 30000 before or softlimit on rsync cures this, obviously, to prevent the remaining runaway thread from eating all memory.) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
