Setup & Installation / Re: How to have quantity and quality of memory
« on: July 19, 2020, 04:24:37 pm »
After opening all those applications it shows me a lot of free memory. And the system is light.

After opening a lot of programs, (attached the taskbar), memory decreases to a point, where it begins to increase. I am sure I can open another bunch of programs without problems. It reminds me of OS / 2 from many years ago.Post here.Thanks, David

I can't believe that you don't have any upper memory so I zipped my working version and attach it here. Maybe you want to test.Well this is something else:

I think it came with the above512 package but not sure anymore. With this little script it's easy to monitor memory usage without knowing the details of Theseus. I have it running all the time. So I get a feeling about memory consumption of different applications. And I see when memory runs out before it makes my system unstable.This program seems silly to me, look what it shows me:

And EVERYTHING WORKS INCREDIBLY WELL for me. Except as always little nonsense, like the Seamonkey closes without asking you if you want to close open sales.You still haven't said what you are trying to achieve with these settings. It would also help if you described the computer you are using them on (mboard, CPU, memory etc.).This is what I want to do, that until now I didn't
My swapper.dat file hovers around 2 Mb regardless of what I do.You have put the first two lines of the config-sys as is, and have increased the number in the swappath?
Since all my java programs are started from program objects I don't have java mentioned in my config.sys.Neither do I
Hi roberto,Can you explain this:
Parameter:
mmm is a number from 512 to 32767 which specifies how large the SWAPPER.DAT file can grow before it stops consuming hard disk space. The size is stated in the negative. In other words, if you have the mmm set to 512, then the SWAPPER.DAT file can grow until there is only 512k left on your hard disk.
nnn is the starting size of the SWAPPER.DAT file.
'mem' tells you how much physical RAM is accessible by OS/2. This has NOTHING to do with Virtual Address Limit which is a software concept unrelated to actual physical memory.Look for a computer with that defect of abnormal high memory.
Every process has 4096mb of "virtual address space". The kernel always uses the top 1024mb of addresses from 3072 to 4096 mb. Virtual Address Limit determines how much of the remaining 3072mb a program is allowed to use.
You can easily bring the upper shared memory down with Seamonkey and I think some javascripts. When I work on some wiki sites (Atlassian Confluence) it only needs a few tabs open and you have to have an eye on upper shared memory as it is all eaten up very fast. Even VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=2560 does not help very much here.I have also seen this problem of running out of memory in some web pages, try putting this in config.sys:
Hello Igor
The error occurs when installing the 12.x kit from Arca. At the moment, I checked version 12.06 and
audio driver from version 12.06. I see a problem in the fact that USB 12.x drivers do not work correctly in a multiprocessor system.
