Warning

Exercise caution while editing /usr/local/omk/conf/opCommon.nmis, /usr/local/omk/conf/opCommon.json or /etc/mongod.conf; if a syntax error is induced all OMK applications will cease to function.

Check out How to make configuration changes to opCommon.nmis and other files for some more details on best practices for modifying the configuration file.

Reducing a Server's Memory Footprint

...

    • In omk/conf/opCommon.json:
      • omkd_workers is set at 10 by default. Try reducing this number to 2 and then restart the omkd service.
        If you THEN find YOU need more omkd_workers, increment this value by one and test again until you get to a suitable value for omkd_workers
      • /omkd/omkd_max_requests: 100 to 500 (start at 100 and increase from this value if needed)
    • in nmis9/conf/Config.nmis:
      • /system/nmisd_worker_max_cycles: 100

Consider using zram or zswap to extend available memory, with default settings, provided the server does not have high CPU usage.

Advantages of zram

  • An advantage of zram is that it does not need to be backed by an appropriately sized swap space - and this makes it easier to configure and maintain during the lifecycle of the server.
  • Another advantage of zram is that it is more likely to function in low memory environments whereas zswap should not be used when the server  has less than 1GB RAM.
  • Another advantage of zram is that I've not encountered a server kernel that is not supporting it (zram), whereas I have encountered this with zswap on occasion.

Disadvantages of zram

  • A disadvantage of zram is that the computer cannot hibernate when using zram - which is highly unlikely to be a requirement for a server.
  • Another disadvantage of zram is that it requires a few installs initially to get it running, although once configured it is easier to maintain.
  • Another disadvantage of zram is that pages will be "swapped in", i.e. decompressed when making a zram configuration change on machines with low memory.
    Instead of
    restarting the service, rebooting might be a better option.
    I prefer to set up an equivalent sized swap space as a fallback for when the zram service is restarted to change its settings.
  • A final disadvantage that needs mentioning is that the command `free` reports 20% more RAM than is present when configured to use 20% of memory for zram swap, for example:

    Code Block
    # We have a server with 8GB RAM.
    # Expecting a compression ratio of 3.00, this server has been configured to use 20% of RAM (1.6GB) as zram swap.
    # This zram swap is displayed by the `free` command below as 4.7GB, being the uncompressed zram swap (1.6GB * compression ratio of 3 = 4.8GB).
    
    # The 1.6GB of RAM used as zram swap has not been deducted from the total Mem 7.8GB as displayed by the `free` command:
    # This server has 11GB of combined RAM + zram swap (7.8GB - 1.6GB + 4.7GB), not 12.5GB combined RAM + zram swap (7.8GB + 4.7GB);
    
    free -h
                  total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
    Mem:          7.8Gi       1.1Gi       264Mi        32Mi       6.4Gi       6.4Gi
    Swap:         4.7Gi        46Mi       1.9Gi

    • zswap

      • First check whether the linux kernel supports zswap:

        Code Block
        grep -i zswap /boot/config-$(uname -r)
        
        # CONFIG_ZSWAP is not set

        The output 'CONFIG_ZSWAP is not set' signals that the kernel does not support zswap.
        The output 'CONFIG_ZSWAP=y' signals that the kernel does support zswap.

      • https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/vm/zswap.html provides that:
        • Zswap is a lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to compress them
          into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool. zswap basically trades CPU cycles for potentially reduced swap I/O.
          This trade-off can also result in a significant performance improvement if
          reads from the compressed cache are faster than reads from a swap device.
        • Zswap is a new feature as of v3.11 and interacts heavily with memory reclaim. This interaction has not been fully explored on the large set of potential configurations and workloads that exist.
          For this reason, zswap is a work in progress and should be considered experimental.
        • Overcommitted guests that share a common I/O resource can dramatically reduce their swap I/O pressure, avoiding heavy handed I/O throttling by the hypervisor.
          This allows more work to get done with less impact to the guest workload and guests sharing the I/O subsystem.
        • Users with SSDs as swap devices can extend the life of the device by drastically reducing life-shortening writes.
      • Performance Analysis of Compressed Caching Technique
        • See the CONCLUSION of this paper for insights as to why zswap should not be used on a server with less than 1GB RAM.

      • For zswap to function correctly it needs swap space equivalent to the maximum uncompressed RAM zswap may contain in its pool
        • To cater for a zswap compression ratio of 4.0, with the default 20% zswap pool (1/5th),
          one would provision swap space in a server with 10GB RAM installed of 2 GB zswap pool * (4.0-1) = 6.0 GB RAM: Server with 10GB RAM + at least 6.0 GB swap space should then be provisioned
        • One can expect at least a zswap compression ratio of 3.1, so when enabling zswap on a server with 10GB RAM installed, one should provision a minimum of 4.2 GB swap space.
      • Don't be tempted to increase maximum pool percent from the default setting of 20: this will most likely affect performance adversely.
      • Command to view zswap info during operation when enabled:
        • sudo grep -rRn . /sys/kernel/debug/zswap/
          may require mounting debugfs :
          sudo mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug


    • https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/new-linux-zswap-compression-functionality provides that for a server with 10GB RAM and 20% zswap pool size:

       
      • For the x86 runs, the pool limit was hit earlier - starting at the 15.5 GB data point
      • On x86, the average zswap compression ratio was 3.6

      • Average zswap compression ratio of 3.6 ties in with the 15.5 GB data point a which real disk swap started  as follows
        (as given in https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/new-linux-zswap-compression-functionality):
        • 10 GB RAM with 2 GB zswap pool =
          • 8 GB available RAM + 2  GB zswap pool =
            • 8 GB available RAM + (2  GB zswap pool * 3.6 average zswap compression ratio) =
              • 8 GB available RAM + 7.2GB zswap compressed RAM =
                • 15.2 GB RAM


    • Real world example 2021-12-22:

      • The following code was placed in /etc/rc.local to use the best zswap options available,
        as improvements have been made to zswap compression since this article was originally written

        • When this server was swapping the following zswap stats were achieved:

          Compress Ratio: 5.1370556204920


        • How to interpret the above stats:
          • 'free -h' command provides that 1.4G of swap was used.
            That stat refers to the uncompressed swap:
            '/sys/kernel/debug/zswap/stored_pages * 4096' = '360385 * 4096' = 1476136960 bytes = 1.37476 GB
          • The 1.37476 GB of swap was compressed to '/sys/kernel/debug/zswap/pool_total_size' = 287293440 bytes = 0.26756 GB of RAM.
          • Compression Ratio is therefore '1.37476 GB/0.26756 GB' = 5.13706

            • Note: A compression ratio > 5.00 is unusually high, long term:
              • when zpool is zbud, the typical compression ratio will be 1.70;
              • when zpool is z3fold, the typical compression ratio will be 2.70;
              • when zpool is zsmalloc, the typical compression ratio will be 3.00,
                as in the following example where swap did not hit the disk,
                even though 9GB memory was allocated when the server had only 7.8GB memory available:

                Code Block
                free -h
                              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
                Mem:           7.8G        7.5G        245M         20K         73M        148M
                Swap:          7.7G        1.5G        6.2G
                
                sudo sh -c 'echo;grep . /sys/module/zswap/parameters/*;echo;D=/sys/kernel/debug/zswap;grep . "${D}/"*;perl -E "say \"\nCompress Ratio: \".$(cat "${D}/stored_pages")*4096/$(cat "${D}/pool_total_size")" 2>/dev/null'

                Compress Ratio: 3.08537436548223




        • With regards to the VM, with Compress Ratio: 5.1370556204920 example further above,
          swapsize was set knowing the compression ratios zswap achieved on this VM.

          To allow zswap to achieve a compression ratio of 5.13706,
          zswap needs swap space equivalent to the maximum uncompressed RAM zswap may contain in its pool when compressing at compression ratio of 5.13706.

          Consequently, the minimum swap space this VM should then have is:
          • '2 GB RAM * /sys/module/zswap/parameters/max_pool_percent * Compression Ratio'
            = '2 GB RAM * 20% * 5.13706'
            = 2.055 GB swap

        • However, the reason why the swap on this VM was actually set at 2.75 GB is that the command
          watch free -h

          showed that this VMs' zswap compression ratio was fluctuating between 4.8 and 6.1

          Consequently the decision was made to set

          '2GB RAM * 20% * 6.875'
          = 2.75 GB swap on this VM.


        • Use a swapfile for swap as this provides better flexibility in sizing swap than a swap partition.
          To resize an existing /swapfile to 2.75 GB (2883584 kilobytes):

          Code Block
          SWAPFILE=/swapfile;
          sudo swapoff "${SWAPFILE}";
          # count in kilobytes
          sudo dd if=/dev/zero of="${SWAPFILE}" bs=1024 count=2883584;
          sudo chmod 0600 "${SWAPFILE}";
          sudo mkswap "${SWAPFILE}";
          sudo swapon "${SWAPFILE}";
          sudo swapon --show;
          NAME      TYPE SIZE USED PRIO
          /swapfile file  12G 512K   -2


        • To make a new /swapfile persist after a reboot append this entry to /etc/fstab:

          Code Block
          /swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0

    • Consider setting cacheSizeGB appropriately taking into consideration the memory requirements of other processes running on this box.
      With default mongod settings, a box with 16GB memory will most probably be currently set to use more than 7GB of memory for cacheSizeGB.

      This may be too much considering the box may be running NMIS, OMK and other applications too.
      • Check how much memory mongod is using for this cache at /var/log/mongodb/mongod.log:  search for cache_size where it is provided in MB, for example:

        • STORAGE [initandlisten] wiredtiger_open config: create,cache_size=7414M
          cacheSizeGB is set in GB, so a cache_size of 7414M is equivalent to the following setting in /etc/mongod.conf:
          • storage:
            • wiredTiger:
              • engineConfig:
                • cacheSizeGB: 7.24


      • Example where 60% was decided as the ratio that should be used to compute MongoDB cacheSizeGB on a VM with 8GB memory

        • MONGO_USAGE=0.6;echo "$MONGO_USAGE"; 
        • TOTAL_MEM=$(cat /proc/meminfo| grep -iF "memtotal" | awk '{print $2}')returns ;echo "$TOTAL_MEM"; 
          • returns  (in KB): TOTAL_MEM=7673702.4 (KB)
        • MONGO_MEM=$(echo "(${TOTAL_MEM} / (1024 * 1024)) * ${MONGO_USAGE}" | bc -l);echo "$MONGO_MEM"; 
          • returns (in GB): MONGO_MEM=4.390927734375 (GB)
        • MONGO_MEM=$(printf "%.2f" "${MONGO_MEM}");echo "$MONGO_MEM"; 
          • returns  (in GB):  MONGO_MEM=4.39 (GB)
        • CACHE_MEM_FINAL=$(echo "((${MONGO_MEM} -1) * 0.5) / 1" | bc -l)returns ;echo "$CACHE_MEM_FINAL"; 
          • returns  (in GB): CACHE_MEM_FINAL=1.695 (GB)
        • CACHE_MEM_FINAL=$(printf "%.2f" "${CACHE_MEM_FINAL}")returns CACHE;echo "$CACHE_MEM_FINAL"; 
          • returns  (in GB): CACHE_MEM_FINAL=1.70 (GB)
        • https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/configuration-options/#storage-options
          IF CACHE_MEM_FINAL < 0.25 (GB) THEN CACHE_MEM_FINAL = 0.25 (GB)
        • echo $CACHE_MEM_FINAL
          • 1.7
        • Set cacheSizeGB to 1.7
