From 3a48ee8a4ad26c3a538b6fc11a86a8f80c3dce18 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Gruenbacher Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2010 19:05:23 +0200 Subject: mbcache: Limit the maximum number of cache entries Limit the maximum number of mb_cache entries depending on the number of hash buckets: if the only limit to the number of cache entries is the available memory the hash chains can grow very long, taking a long time to search. At least partially solves https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22771.
