 Description   

Hi,

it would be nice if Zabbix uses mmap to avoid the System V shared memory tuning via sysctl .
Postgresql has done this with Verson 9.3

regards Florian

I followed the link and there is this:

But it's not 100% clear how portable this is...

Is there any follow up information how portable it turned up to be? What do you mean by "tuning"? Permission to allocate huge amounts of memory for caches?
