首先学习网上例子，进行体验性的试验：
首先不限制内存使用来进行下载：
[root@cent6 Desktop]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 484 1522 0 29 175
-/+ buffers/cache: 279 1727
Swap: 4031 0 4031
[root@cent6 Desktop]#
然后，再下载约700M:
wget http://centos.arcticnetwork.ca/6.4/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-LiveCD.iso
然后看内存使用情况：
[root@cent6 Desktop]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 1224 782 0 33 878
-/+ buffers/cache: 312 1694
Swap: 4031 0 4031
[root@cent6 Desktop]#
确实是用掉了700多M内存。
然后，重新启动，限制内存使用：
[root@cent6 Desktop]# service cgconfig status
Stopped
#mount -t cgroup -o memory memcg /cgroup
# mkdir /cgroup/GroupA
# echo 10M > /cgroup/GroupA/memory.limit_in_bytes
# echo $$ > /cgroup/GroupA/tasks
然后，再看内存状况：
[root@cent6 Desktop]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 481 1525 0 29 174
-/+ buffers/cache: 276 1729
Swap: 4031 0 4031
[root@cent6 Desktop]#
再下载约700M:
wget http://centos.arcticnetwork.ca/6.4/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-LiveCD.iso
再看内存使用前后对比:
[root@cent6 Desktop]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 512 1494 0 32 186
-/+ buffers/cache: 293 1713
Swap: 4031 0 4031
[root@cent6 Desktop]#
可以知道，大约的内存使用量为 1525-1494=31M。不过free命令观察到的结果是有误差的，程序执行时间长，free就是一个不断累减的值，由于当前shell被限制使用内存最大10M，那么基数很小的情况下，时间越长，误差越大。
下面，看看对PostgreSQL能否产生良好的限制：
再此之前，通过系统设定来看看对postgres用户进行wget操作时的内存的控制：
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ cat /etc/cgconfig.conf

mount {
cpuset = /cgroup/cpuset;
cpu = /cgroup/cpu;
cpuacct = /cgroup/cpuacct;
memory = /cgroup/memory;
devices = /cgroup/devices;
freezer = /cgroup/freezer;
net_cls = /cgroup/net_cls;
blkio = /cgroup/blkio;
}
group test1 {
perm {
task{
uid=postgres;
gid=postgres;
}
admin{
uid=root;
gid=root;
}
} memory {
memory.limit_in_bytes=30M;
}
}
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$
还有一个文件，cgrules.conf，也很重要:
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ cat /etc/cgrules.conf
# /etc/cgrules.conf
#
#Each line describes a rule for a user in the forms:
#
#<user> <controllers> <destination>
#<user>:<process name> <controllers> <destination>
#
#Where:
# <user> can be:
# - an user name
# - a group name, with @group syntax
# - the wildcard *, for any user or group.
# - The %, which is equivalent to "ditto". This is useful for
# multiline rules where different cgroups need to be specified
# for various hierarchies for a single user.
#
# <process name> is optional and it can be:
# - a process name
# - a full command path of a process
#
# <controller> can be:
# - comma separated controller names (no spaces)
# - * (for all mounted controllers)
#
# <destination> can be:
# - path with-in the controller hierarchy (ex. pgrp1/gid1/uid1)
#
# Note:
# - It currently has rules based on uids, gids and process name.
#
# - Don't put overlapping rules. First rule which matches the criteria
# will be executed.
#
# - Multiline rules can be specified for specifying different cgroups
# for multiple hierarchies. In the example below, user "peter" has
# specified 2 line rule. First line says put peter's task in test1/
# dir for "cpu" controller and second line says put peter's tasks in
# test2/ dir for memory controller. Make a note of "%" sign in second line.
# This is an indication that it is continuation of previous rule.
#
#
#<user> <controllers> <destination>
#
#john cpu usergroup/faculty/john/
#john:cp cpu usergroup/faculty/john/cp
#@student cpu,memory usergroup/student/
#peter cpu test1/
#% memory test2/
#@root * admingroup/
#* * default/
# End of file
postgres memory test1/
#
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$
在root用户，设置如下两个服务随系统启动：
chkconfig cgconfig on
chkconfig cgred on
然后重新启动系统后，用postgres用户进行登录，进行检验：
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 381 1625 0 25 134
-/+ buffers/cache: 221 1785
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ wget http://centos.arcticnetwork.ca/6.4/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-LiveCD.iso
执行完毕后，看内存状况，成功。
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 393 1613 0 28 141
-/+ buffers/cache: 224 1782
Swap: 4031 67 3964
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$
下面看对postgresql中执行sql 的限制如何：
步骤1: 对/etc/cgconfig.conf 文件和 /etc/cgrules.conf 文件的设置如前所述。
步骤2: 运行前查看内存状况：
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2006 384 1622 0 26 138
-/+ buffers/cache: 219 1787
Swap: 4031 87 3944
[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$
步骤3: 开始处理大量数据(约600MB)
postgres=# select count(*) from test01;
count
-------
0
(1 row)
postgres=# insert into test01 values(generate_series(1,614400),repeat( chr(int4(random()*26)+65),1024));
运行刚刚开始，就出现了如下的错误：
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.
!>
这和之前碰到的崩溃情形一致。
PostgreSQL的log本身是这样的：
[postgres@cent6 pgsql]$ LOG: database system was shut down at 2013-09-09 16:20:29 CST
LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
LOG: autovacuum launcher started
LOG: server process (PID 2697) was terminated by signal 9: Killed
DETAIL: Failed process was running: insert into test01 values(generate_series(1,614400),repeat( chr(int4(random()*26)+65),1024));
LOG: terminating any other active server processes

DETAIL: The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back the current transaction and exit, because another server process exited abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.
HINT: In a moment you should be able to reconnect to the database and repeat your command.
FATAL: the database system is in recovery mode
LOG: all server processes terminated; reinitializing

LOG: redo done at 1/9F6BDB50
LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
LOG: autovacuum launcher started
通过dmesg命令，可以看到，发生了Out of Memory错误，这次是 cgroup out of memory

[postgres@cent6 Desktop]$
我怀疑自己的内存开得过小了，影响到一些基本的运行。PostgreSQL本身也需要一些资源(shared_buffers、wal_buffers都需要用一些内存)
所以我调整了参数 memory.limit_in_bytes=300M ，再次运行：
前述的sql问处理1200MB数据，成功结束，内存没有过多增长。
