|
* total amount of RAM is 16GB, bdi->max_ratio is equal to 1%, global |
|
* limits are set by default to 10% and 20% (background and throttle). |
|
* Then bdi_thresh is 1% of 20% of 16GB. This amounts to ~8K pages. |
|
* bdi_dirty_limit(bdi, bg_thresh) is about ~4K pages. bdi_setpoint is |
|
* about ~6K pages (as the average of background and throttle bdi |
|
* limits). The 3rd order polynomial will provide positive feedback if |
|
* bdi_dirty is under bdi_setpoint and vice versa. |
|
* |
|
* Note, that we cannot use global counters in these calculations |
|
* because we want to throttle process writing to a strictlimit BDI |
|
* much earlier than global "freerun" is reached (~23MB vs. ~2.3GB |
|
