Berner from comment #1) > … need to work on the documentation be it pkg-message or handbook … > how to handle this issue (`balooctl disable` or restricting the > folders to be monitored, or increasing the number of file handles). … +1 For kern.maxvnodes we have <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/config/#_kern_maxvnodes> (currently 12.11.3.1), however this subsection is not referenced from any troubleshooting section of any chapter. Absence of a package message ---------------------------- <https://www.freshports.org/sysutils/kf5-baloo/> ▶ <https://www.freshports.org/sysutils/kf5-baloo/#message> This might be prioritised. * Add a messsage * mention vfs.numvnodes and kern.maxvnodes * refer to the virtual memory subsection of the FreeBSD Handbook * do not yet refer to tuning(7) <https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=tuning&sektion=7&manpath=FreeBSD>, because there's no relevant mention of kern.maxvnodes. The manual page for tuning(7), and answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bug 218538 might improve the man page, by making an example of vfs.numvnodes and kern.maxvnodes in a situation such as this. Bug 266111 comment 2, carlavilla@ mentions his template for a new FAQ for FreeBSD. Whilst I have not seen the template for an /en/ edition, I imagine a (plain English) mention of system performance; plus maybe a (semi-technical) phrase such as virtual memory vnode limit; then either the answer, or reference to the FreeBSD Handbook. 218538 and 266111 in parallel. Realistically, the new FAQ might happen first. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
