|
|
* readdir concurrency
|
|
* memory
|

|
|
* [gidcache](faq/technical_behavior_and_limitations.md#how-does-mergerfs-handle-credentials)
|
|

|
## Management
|
|
|
|
* To limit the risk of the Linux kernel's OOM Killer targeting
|
|
mergerfs it sets its
|
|
[oom_score_adj](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/proc_pid_oom_score_adj.5.html)
|
|
value to -990.
|
|
* mergerfs increases [its available file descriptor and file size
|
|
limit.](https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/setrlimit.3p.html)
|
|
* mergerfs lowers its [scheduling
|
|
priority](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/setpriority.3p.html)
|
|
to -10 ([by default](config/options.md))
|
|
* The [readahead](config/readahead.md) values of mergerfs itself and
|
|
managed filesystems can be modified.
