Does iOS support virtual memory and a swap file?

I'm getting conflicting reports on this one...

From +Memory Usage Performance Guidelines+
Both Mac OS X and iOS include a fully-integrated virtual memory system that you cannot turn off; it is always on. Both system also provide up to 4 gigabytes of addressable space per 32-bit process. In addition, Mac OS X provides approximately 18 exabytes of addressable space for 64-bit processes. Even for computers that have 4 or more gigabytes of RAM available, the system rarely dedicates this much RAM to a single process.
To give processes access to their entire 4 gigabyte or 18 exabyte address space, Mac OS X uses the hard disk to hold data that is not currently in use. As memory gets full, sections of memory that are not being used are written to disk to make room for data that is needed now. The portion of the disk that stores the unused data is known as the backing store because it provides the backup storage for main memory.
Although Mac OS X supports a backing store, iOS does not. In iPhone applications, read-only data that is already on the disk (such as code pages) is simply removed from memory and reloaded from disk as needed. Writable data is never removed from memory by the operating system. Instead, if the amount of free memory drops below a certain threshold, the system asks the running applications to free up memory voluntarily to make room for new data. Applications that fail to free up enough memory are terminated.

  • The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual disk sharing

    Hi everyone,
    I deployed 2 hyper v vitual machines a while ago, and i did that because I needed to test my current game Project, which is an
    online game. However, i've had some problems with my Windows installation then I had to reset the pc by making it a refresh
    install. I still have the hyper v virtual disks, but i cannot attach it to a new hyper-v virtual machine. it pops up this message:
    "the storage
    where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual disk sharing". I dont know anything about virtual machines, so I
    didnt know I had to make the disk sharable. How can I force to attach the hard disk to a new hyper-v? I dont want to go t
    hrough the whole proccess of installing the operating system all over again and updating it....
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance,
    Romulo Romero

    Hi MrDebugging,
    >>
    When I Try to add a SCSI Controller, and then I click browse to add a UNC I get this:
    C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual hard disks\ClienMachine.vhdx
    but I tried placing in different location, and the same problem occurs!
    By the way, Im not on a server , I am a domestic user and I am running it on my
    Windows 8.1
    According to the error message , it seems that it is not a permission issue .
    The VM is Gen 1 or Gen2 ?
    Generally the error message occurs when you enable "shared vhdx" on standalone/client hyper-v host :
    Please try to attach the VHDx file to IDE controller if it is a Gen 1 virtual machine (because only the SCSI controller has the option "virtual hard disk sharing" and Gen 1 VM only can boot from IDE )
    All in all , please do not use this feature without CSV or Scale-Out File Server with SMB 3.0 on file-based storage .
    If it is not the case , please detail steps what you did .
    Best Regards,

    Hello.
    Can anybody explain, how should I understand this "Certification Information" from Oracle metalink?
    ==Quote ==
    "Oracle Database is certified with the following Windows Server 2008 editions:
    * Windows Server 2008 Standard (x86 and x64)

    Does it mean that this OS is supported, but only if it does not run in Hyper-v configuration?

  • The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual hard disk sharing. (Hyper-v / Windows 10 Enterprise Tech. Preview)

    I am attempting to create new virtual machines in Hyper-V on Windows 10 Enterprise Tech. Preview and I am continually getting the error "The storage where the virtual hard disk is located does not support virtual hard disk sharing.". I am not trying
    to setup a shared VM or VHD, just a basic VHD.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

    This issue is listed in the release notes and currently there is no fix on our side. Have to wait for the next build.
    "Known issues in Build 10049
    If you have Virtual Machines hosted on your PC running Windows 10, you will want to move to the Slow ring and wait for the next build as this build breaks the ability to run VMs. "
    The statement is miss-quoted. It was about Hyper -V. An update KB3053898
    was released to fix that
    See the blog
    Here :
    excerpt........notice the statement has been crossed off in the blog.
    UPDATE: You cannot enable Hyper-V on this build. If you have Hyper-V already enabled and you upgrade to this build, Hyper-V will continue to work. <del>If you have Virtual Machines hosted in Hyper-V on your PC running Windows 10, you will want to move

  • Frame bytes, virtual memory and you

    Hi,
    I made a screensaver for a client using Flash and FlashJester
    Creator Pro. They told me that on some of their older machines, it
    is running out of virtual memory and crashing the machines. So we
    started looking at eliminating sections of the screensaver.
    We ran the diagnostics on the original FLA, and this is what
    we get:
    1 5464 5464 Scene 1 (AS 2.0 Classes Export Frame)
    2 34 5498
    3 16447 21945
    4 2736 24681
    5 10555 35236
    6 7891 43127
    7 55472 98599
    8 7438 106037
    So frame 7 is the problem right? I delete that entirely, just
    for kicks.
    1 7866 7866 Scene 1 (AS 2.0 Classes Export Frame)

    7 7 60463
    8 10050 70513
    And as you can see, the other sections suddenly GREW in size.
    Can somebody explain this to me. Does anybody have any better ideas
    on how to solve the "running out of virtual memory" issue?

  • The Organizer does not support the color space in the file

    I just purchased and installed PSE 8 as an upgrade to PSE 6.  My catalog correctly shows all of my existing images.  However, when I try to import photos into the Organizer, I get a message that nothing was imported.  The reason given is that "The Organizer does not support the color space in the file."  This happens with photos taken on my iPhone as well as those from my Canon PowerShot A1100 IS.  Any suggestions?

  • Not memory consumed, no swap file usage

    We have a 4 processor Windows 2000 server with 4 gig of Ram.While running a data load and calc process against one database in Essbase that pegs the cpu at 2 gig, the Essbase server info window shows no memory being used and no swap file space being used....Why? Is this a bug in Essbase, do other people note the same problem?Thanks for any insight you can provide,GeorgePS - We're on Essbase 6.1 patch 3a.

    Essbase has configurable parameters that control RAM usage - specifically:The Index CacheThe Data CacheThe Data File CacheThe Calc CacheThese settings will have an effect on what memory Essbase uses during a calc. They can be found in Database / Settings using Application Manager.Regards,Jade===============================Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]

    iCal failing to run applescripts: The 'Open' button does not change to 'Run', and the script file is opened but not executed.

    Calendar (not called iCal anymore) does not include that capability any longer, apparently.  What you have to do now is go to Automator and create a Calendar Alert action.  You can add a Run AppleScript object to the action and paste in your script there, then when you save it, it will become available as a choice in the alert menu in Calendar.

    1) SMILPlugin - SMILMediaGenerator class modified to support both live and vod smil files. SMILLoader modified to retain original resource metadata.
    2) AkamaiBasicStreamingPlugin refactored. This includes improved support for all types of streams while the plugin is loaded, added support for plugin metadata that can override built in defaults for a) live stream time out; b) whether or not the plugin should try to reconnect to a live stream if both primary and secondary encoders fail; c) the interval at which the retry should occur.  Added support for resource metadata for specifying connect-level and stream-level auth tokens so that these tokens do not need to be part of the URL (although this is acceptable also).
    3) AkamaiPluginSample app updated to support auth tokens which are not part of the URL (these are passed to the Akamai plugin via resource metadata).

  • Huge amount of virtual memory and system slows to a crawl

    I have a mac mini with 5 GB of memory running os x mavericks and server 3, prior to the mavericks upgrade, it ran fine.Now it is showing an excessive amount of virtual memory in use, 40-70 gb, and the system slows to a near stop: e.g. switching apps takes over 30 seconds, starting one takes well over a minute, pressing command tab doesn't respond with list of apps and the display doesn't always wake up.  A hard reboot (hold down power button to turn off, then back on) seems to be the only thing that works to get out of this. I tried scheduling a shutdown and reboot with energy saver but that just resulted in a completely non-responsive system.  When the display does wake up, there's nothing in the activity monitor memory display that indicates a high memory usage.
    I'm considering wiping out the hard drive and reinstalling unless somebody has some other ideas.
    Does anybody have similar problems with mavericks and server 3?

    I managed to look at it before the system hung up and it looks like devicemgrd is the top user of memory.  Of course, I don't know if this is indicative of a problem as I have only 1 server.   I saw it up to 1.4 GB just a little bit ago and now it is down below 800MB and dropping.
