I asked almost the same question in may (different server/kernel).

http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=13373&

I believe this is causing the OOM killer to spawn as Vasily pointed it out last time:

Normal free:2728kB min:3756kB low:4692kB high:5632kB active:2324kB inactive:2624kB present:901120kB pages_scanned:7828 all_unreclaimable? yes

I notice this slab is rather enormous:

buffer_head : size 372822016 objsize 52

--

Any pointers or insight into what could be causing this or how I can avoid running out of normal_free would be great. To duplicate this problem I reported today, I was executing a long running tar of a many files.

Thanks!
Rick
