#1796: refuse to upload/download a mutable file if it cannot be done in the
available memory
-------------------------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: davidsarah | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: undecided
Component: code-mutable | Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: mutable large usability error | Launchpad Bug:
-------------------------------------------+---------------------------
If an operation on a mutable file requires significantly more memory than
the amount of physical memory available, then it will just thrash
uselessly. Depending on how well the operating system handles memory
pressure, this may make the machine unusable or the gateway process
difficult to kill. The gateway should simply refuse the operation in this
case.
The method of getting the amount of usable memory is likely to be
different on Unix and Windows.
