wine users - May 2009 - Re: Wine memory problem

Hi,

Finally I managed to build wine (1.1.20) on Centos 5.2 x86_64 and applied patch
20483 (0001-Ported-mmap-patch-to-wine-1.1.19.patch) of bug 13335.
But unfortunatelly I get the same performance: each .exe process get 3.6 GB of
Virtual memory.

Any other suggestion?

Thanks,

Salva

The patch fixes apps which get not enough memory. Wine will always require that
3.6GB of virtual memory. It is not a bug and all and can't be changed. As
Dan already pointed out what you want is a way to restrict the amount of
physical memory a program can use and not limit this.

I want to minimize the amount of VM needed to run my applications because my VPS
provider charge me for intastaniously usage of VM.
Any idea?
