Subject: [PATCH] journal: limit the number of entries in the cache based on
36e8a3
 available memory
36e8a3
36e8a3
This is far from perfect, but should give mostly reasonable values. My
36e8a3
assumption is that if somebody has a few hundred MB of memory, they are
36e8a3
unlikely to have thousands of processes logging. A hundred would already be a
36e8a3
lot. So let's scale the cache size propritionally to the total memory size,
36e8a3
with clamping on both ends.
36e8a3
36e8a3
The formula gives 64 cache entries for each GB of RAM.
