Hardware and Performance / Re: Less than 512MB RAM issues

Is there a hardware spec for your device somewhere to skim through?

Yes, you can check it here: www.compactpc.com.tw

I am using the model: http://www.compactpc.com.tw/product.aspx?act=detail&id=85

I created a new thread about this, because it is not related to RAM anymore:

Hardware and Performance / IPv6 on PPPoE eats 100% of CPU

« on: March 26, 2018, 04:17:20 am »

Hi guys,

The phyton 2.7 process is using 100% of CPU and is dying often. The command below is the source of the problem. My WAN is using PPPoE on IPv4. I don't know if is possible to have PPPoE on IPv6. Maybe this can be the cause of the issue?

I did not configure IPv6 on this interface for PPPoE, only IPv4 has PPPoE on the WAN interface. Toughts?

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/opnsense/service/configd_ctl.py interface newipv6 ppp

Hi Franco,

Thanks for the suggestion, but pfSense works on this box, so I think OPNSense can do it too.

Further investigation brought to me the following process eating 100% of CPU:

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/opnsense/service/configd_ctl.py interface newipv6 ppp
So "newipv6" on "ppp" interface can be the issue? I do no know if IPv6 can be got on pppoe wan interface.

17.7 Legacy Series / Re: HBSD SEGVGUARD errors on filterdns

« on: January 18, 2018, 10:39:41 pm »

I am experiencing lots of issues like this. Migrating to x86_64 is not an option, since my hardware is an eBox 3310A-L2 (http://www.compactpc.com.tw/product.aspx?act=detail&id=24).

The message is as follows:

Code: [Select]

[HBSD SEGVGUARD] [python2.7 (process number varies)] Suspension expired.
 -> pid: 76923 ppid: 168 p_pax: 0x90<SEGVGUARD,NOALSR>
I already disabled ASLR, as stated before in this post.

Any ideas why python2.7 is crashing? the box has 478MB RAM free, enabling swap does not help, swap is at 0% use all times.

Hi folks, sorry for the delay.

I was investigating througly this issue, and I found the following:

- I am receiving lots of messages regarding phyton2.7 suspension expired. I disabled ASLR per other post instructions, but the message changes from <ASLR> to <NOASLR>, but there is no visible change;
- Often, the phyton2.7 or the php-cgi processes takes 100% of CPU for no reason. I kill the related process, but after some time it happens again.

I enabled swap, but the use of swap file is at 0% all times.
Maybe this issue is not related to lack of RAM, but it is the i386 platfom the cause.

Hardware and Performance / Less than 512MB RAM issues

« on: November 06, 2017, 05:56:32 pm »

Hello folks,

I am running OpnSense on a eBox. This embedded device has only 512MB RAM, leaving about to 488MB free for OpnSense. Clicking on "Update" freezes the box, maybe due to low RAM.

Any clues on how to use less RAM? The default 17.1 install can be made shorter?
