Major Page Faults


Hi All,

Recently we have upgrade kernel from 2.6.39 to 3.14 in one of our production server.

We have seen major IOWAIT% in this server, after further inspection we found that kswapd was taking more cpu time and it was forked by major page faults at that time.

Same server was working fine with 2.6.39 kernel. What could be the reason for this major page faults? Can we tune kernel in such a way that it prevents from such major page faults?

Regards,
Bhushan Karia
