Hi,
It's been a while since this thread died out, but maybe I'm
having the same problem. Networking, large part of memory is
buffering writes.....
In my case I'm using NBD.
Oh,
/sys/block/nbd0/stat gives:
636 88 5353 1700 991 19554 162272 63156 43 1452000 61802352
I put some debugging stuff in nbd, and it DOES NOT KNOW about the
43 requests that the io scheduler claims are in flight at the
driver....
Those requests start a couple of seconds AFTER the whole thing
grinds to a halt.
I switched from crashing my 512Mb-ram-workstation to my development
machine, which has only 64M of RAM. (I got the development machine
back up and running after some effort).
My rsync (and also "sync" if I call it, or reboot without -n) also
gets stuck in D state:
