Disabling compcache in Ubuntu Jaunty (and Related Swap Errors)
This bug can also be seen if you are seeing errors like these:
Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.135859] compcache: Error allocating memory for compressed page: 60594, size=4096 Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.135871] Write-error on swap-device (254:0:484752) Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.136813] allocation failed: out of vmalloc space - use vmalloc= to increase size. Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.136824] compcache: Error allocating memory for compressed page: 60595, size=2093 Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.136835] Write-error on swap-device (254:0:484760) Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.137088] allocation failed: out of vmalloc space - use vmalloc= to increase size. Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.137098] compcache: Error allocating memory for compressed page: 60596, size=4079 Mar 6 17:27:29 server kernel: [14438.137108] Write-error on swap-device (254:0:484768)
You can also see it when you print swap information with the command swapon -s – if compcache is enabled, one of the swap entries will be “ramzswap”.
To disable compcache completely, do this:
rm -f /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d/compcache && update-initramfs -u
The file compcache contains this line – which is what enables (and sizes) compcache:
COMPCACHE_SIZE="25%"
Optimize Dnsmasq in NetworkManager
create file /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/dnsmasq.conf
with this content:
all-servers cache-size=10000 addn-hosts=/etc/hosts neg-ttl=3600 local-ttl=3600 bogus-priv
for /etc/hosts use Hosts adblocker
