Hi,
A desktop system running latest 12-stable and poudriere-devel gives "out of
swap" errors when compiling some ports like rustc. But swap doesn't go over
7%, there's 32GB RAM and over 64GB of swap (2x 32GB swapfiles on an SSD plus
one 4GB swap partition, also on SSD):
% sysctl -a | grep swap

I see this in /var/log/messages:

d:
out of swap space
Dec 19 15:39:47 desktop kernel: pid 35795 (rustc), jid 13, uid 0, was kille=
d:
out of swap space
Why isn't all the swap space being used? I could understand if it went to l=
ike
95% use then complained, but I've kept a close eye on it while compiling and
it doesn't get anywhere near that. As far as I'm aware, sysctl tunables are
default. I'm thinking maybe the out-of-swapspace messages mask something el=
se?
thanks,
