Re: kernel panic:kmem_zone_zalloc: NULL memory on KM_SLEEP request!

Steve,

We have 3 xfs filesystem on this machine. There are millions of files on those 
filesystems.
And, we have more then 150 NFS clients accessing those filesystems . Most of 
the memory used for caching.

Normally less then  100Mb used as Resident memory, rest is cached.

regards,
Marat
