Out of memory after 10+ hours of streaming #828
Comments
512MB is really low if you want to do video encoding. I'm not sure though why SSR would use 3.2GB of virtual memory. It would be useful to know how much actual (anon) memory SSR was using, but the error only reports 'resident' memory (i.e. excluding swap). What is the size of the SSR log? I'm wondering whether the messages in the log window might be using so much memory that it triggered the OOM killer. |
I wanted to know too: I have monitored SSR for a couple of hours but the RAM usage was fine. It is always crashing when I am not monitoring.
I would say the swap was full of SSR's usage!
The log of the last crash was 49KB. There are some other logs files up to 609KB. I have looked at those other logs and they all end abruptly like the one shown above. If you cannot think of any cause: I will try to test on a 1GB RAM server and come back to you. |
Hi again Marteen, Very sorry for the late follow-up! I have tried on a server with 1GB of RAM and I get the same, which is:
Those are the last lines in the logs: I can only things of the options within SSR which I did not try to check/uncheck:
Or any other OpenGL errors (I don't know where the logs are?). |
If you receive this error message: Try updating to the latest version of SSR, this will at least improve the error messages. |
I have used the |
Debian doesn't update their packages that often. If you want to get the latest version, it's best to compile it yourself. You can clone the git repository and follow the instructions in the readme file. It's not that hard, you just have to install some dependencies and then run Just make sure that you uninstall the |
I have just discovered this recently (for other apps!). Do you know if Ubuntu is having your latest version in its depository?... I do not mind changing the distro. |
Ubuntu has the same version as Debian, however if you use Ubuntu you can install it from my PPA (see the instructions on my website) which always has the latest version. You may also be able to manually download the package from the PPA and install it on Debian instead, but this may result in version conflicts if you can't find a version of Ubuntu that matches the package versions of your Debian installation. |
Background: I am streaming a window to YouTube, everything is fine and the memory is fine: however after 10+ hours SSR is killed by the system (OOM):
There is nothing valuable in the SSR logs (this is the last lines):
I have 512MB of physical RAM and 3GB of vSwap.
I cannot understand why it is fine for hours.. and then suddenly the memory usage just explodes?
