The system rarely uses 8 G of the 32 G available, so disk IO is not the problem. No heavy writes. It was the java scripts.... 1. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! tell me more. I found these links quickly: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroups/freezer-subsystem.txt http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/LXC#Freezer_Support I'm not sure if you've read any of my clustering_frustration posts over the last month or so, but cgroups is at the heart of clustering now. It seems many of the systemd based cluster solutions are having all sorts of OOM, OOM-killer etc etc issues. So any and all good information, examples and docs related to cgroups is of keen interests to me. My efforts to build up a mesos/spark cluster, center around openrc and therefore direct management of resources via cgroups. The freezer is exactly what I'm looking for. Maybe I also need to read up on lxc? What are the best ways to dynamically manage via cgroups? A gui? A static config file? a CLI tool? curiously, James
