work_mem: it's a trap! | My DBA Notebook

My friend Henrietta Dombrovskaya pinged me on Telegram. Her production cluster had just been killed by the OOM killer after eating 2 TB of RAM. work_mem was set to 2 MB. Something didn’t add up. Hetty, like me, likes playing with monster hardware. 2 TB of RAM is not unusual in her world. But losing the whole cluster to a single query during peak operations is a very different kind of problem from a 3am outage.

📝 Plot: During World War I, a musician accepts an invitation from a mysterious friend to visit his country estate in Bray. As he waits in the silent house, memories, dreams and reality intertwine, revealing fragments of the past and uncertain expectations in a contemplative exploration of time, absence and perception.

"It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well." Hearing Taylor Swift's lament evokes my own grief about the loss of meeting in person.

Physical memory (RAM) is the fast, limited hardware that stores active data. Virtual memory is a technique that OSs use to emulate extra RAM by using hard drive/SSD space when physical memory is full. RAM boosts performance with high-speed access, whereas virtual memory prevents crashes when RAM fills up by swapping inactive data. Read more https://windowspost.com/virtual-memory-vs-ram/

Location & Type: Physical memory is RAM chips. Virtual memory is space on a hard drive or SSD (often a pagefile.sys or swap partition).

Speed: Physical memory is significantly faster than virtual memory (HDD/SSD).

Capacity: Physical memory is limited by motherboard slots. Virtual memory is generally limited only by available disk space.

Function: Physical memory holds running applications. Virtual memory acts as a safety net when RAM is exhausted, moving inactive data from RAM to disk, known as "swapping" or "paging".

Visibility: Programs are generally unaware of where their data is stored, as the Operating System (OS) maps virtual addresses to physical RAM seamlessly.
