Hi,

My application need to set the size of the shared arena to more than 700Mb
I tried to use performer environment variables like this:

export PFNFYLEVEL=7
export PFSHAREDSIZE=800000000

perfly esprit.flt

I've got the following message:

25085 PF Notice(2): level Internal Debug (7) set by environment
variable PFNFYLEVEL
25085 PF Info: PFSHAREDSIZE overriding size to 781250.00
KBytes
25085 PF Info/SysErr(12): pfInitArenas() Could not mmap /dev/zero for
size 0x2faf0800 bytes at 0x0
25085 PF Info/SysErr: pfInitArenas() Could not create shared arena
of 781250.00 KB; adjusting to 390625.00 KB
25085 PF Debug/Resource: pfInitArenas() Allocated 390625KB:
0x42f34000 - 0x5acac400
...

So I thought that I don't have enough memory in the swap space
I tried to use the PFTMPDIR like this:

export PFTMPDIR=/user/tmp2
but I´ve got similar message.

24038 PF Notice(2): level Internal Debug (7) set by environment
variable PFNFYLEVEL
24038 PF Info: PFSHAREDSIZE overriding size to 781250.00
KBytes
24038 PF Info/SysErr(12): pfInitArenas() Could not mmap
/usr/tmp2/pfShmemFile.a005ra for size 0x2faf0800 bytes at 0x0
24038 PF Info/SysErr: pfInitArenas() Could not create shared arena
of 781250.00 KB; adjusting to 390625.00 KB
24038 PF Debug/Resource: pfInitArenas() Allocated 390625KB:
0x42f34000 - 0x5acac400
....

the command 'df -k' give the following results:

Filesystem Type kbytes use avail %use Mounted on
/dev/root xfs 8360424 6421448 1938976 77 /
/dev/dsk/dks0d3s7 xfs 8884712 8576732 307980 97 /USERS

chop:/datos2 nfs 17775472 17163344 612128 97 /datos2

the 'swap -ln' command give the following results:

 # path pri pswap free maxswap vswap
 3 /STRIP/swap/swap1 2 1.95g 1.95g 1.95g 0.00k
 4 /.swap.virtual 2 0.00k 0.00k 0.00k 11.42g
 2 /dev/dsk/dks7d6s1 1 8.48g 8.48g 8.48g 0.00k
 1 /dev/swap 0 512.00m 512.00m 512.00m 0.00k

Is there any solution for this problem?

Thanks,

Nassouh
