I wanted to be helpful to the Turris project, so I activated data collection.
Big mistake. With close to a hundred clients on a gigabit Internet connection, the memory was running out and essential services were dying. The first noticeable service to die would usually be DNS. When I checked the logs, ucollect
seemed to be starting up right before every oom-killer
.
So, I tried disabling data collection in Foris. That didn’t work. The DNS was still dying, and ucollect
was still active and processing.
For now, what seems to have worked was to /etc/init.d/ucollect stop
. I worry about what it’ll do when it next reboots.
