> I've talked to a few people about this crash already, but I might as well get a discussion going. Running 5.3 beta 4 (as of Sunday) with Postgress 7.4.2 running on it under heavy load will run into "panic: pmap_enter: attempted pmap_enter on 4MB page". The machine we are running on is a dual xeon 2.8 ghz w/ HyperThreading off, 4 gigs of ram and a 980G RAID5 setup. Using a small database with a total of 100 clients, 80 doing updates and 20 doing queries via tcl (db + clients on the same machine), it runs until fills up 4gigs of ram, then 4 gigs of swap, then we kill it cleanly rc.d script stop). If I repeat this process X number of times (it varies), the last time will bring down the kernel as postgress is exiting. So far (from 2 dumps) the curpte seems invalid

Crash 1:
swap_pager_getswapspace(16): failed
swap_pager_getswapspace(16): failed
swap_pager_getswapspace(16): failed
<3>pid 3327 (postgres), uid 70, was killed: out of swap space
pmap_enter: va 0x29853000, pte 0xbfca614c, origpte 0x1999
panic: pmap_enter: attempted pmap_enter on 4MB page

and
Crash 2:
swap_pager_getswapspace(3): failed
swap_pager_getswapspace(3): failed
<3>pid 9822 (postgres), uid 70, was killed: out of swap space
<3>pid 9816 (postgres), uid 70, was killed: out of swap space
pmap_enter: va 0x2c846000, pte 0xbfcb2118, origpte 0x29f1
panic: pmap_enter: attempted pmap_enter on 4MB page

Anyone have any ideas/input?

Here is the backtrace if it helps:
