-\section{Basics}
-\subsection{Overview}
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{Overview}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item over-committing
-\item Copy-On-Write
-\item Page relocation
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}

-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{over-committing}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Comparable to those low-cost airlines ;)
-\pause
-\item ...selling more tickets than available seats
-\pause
-\item ...hoping not everyone will come ;)
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}[fragile]
-\frametitle{over-commit settings}
-\begin{verbatim}
-/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory
-\end{verbatim}
-Possible settings are:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item 0: Heuristic overcommit handling (default)
-\item 1: Always overcommit
-\item 2: Don't overcommit
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}

-\frametitle{The OOM Killer}
-...is invoked if you ask for more memory than available.\\
-\pause
-\textbf{Result}: The kernel kills a task
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{Copy-On-Write}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item completely transparently for userspace
-\item you don't need the same data twice
-\item only updated if one virtual memory area is updated
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{Page relocation}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item AKA paging or swapping
-\item Linux can move a page to / from swap
-\item also completely transparently for userspace
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{The stack}
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{The stack}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Grows top - down
-\item Configurable stack size
-\item Stack grows on demand. Access beyond current size ends up in a
-''Stackfault'' which is handled by the kernel
-\item ulimit -a shows the current maximum stack size
-\item ulimit -s \emph{size} sets the maximum stack size
-\item Default maximum stack size is 8MiB
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{The heap}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{The heap: Userland handling}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Memory is allocated using malloc()
-\item Memory is freed using free()
-\item malloc() uses the mmap() and the sbrk() system calls
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{The heap: Userland handling}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item For small junks, malloc() allocates memory from the heap and adjusts the
-size using sbrk()
-\item For larger blocks (larger than defined in MMAP\_THRESHOLD) the memory is
-allocated as private, anonymous mapping
-\item MMAP\_THRESHOLD is 128kb by default
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{malloc()}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Keep over-commit in mind!
-\item If over-commit is enabled: A non-null return value from malloc() doesn't
-guarantee that the memory really is available.
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\section{Do's and Dont's}
-\subsection{The heap}
-% fragmentation
-% check return value
-% ulimit (limit memory consumption)
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{Return value}
-Always check malloc's return value!!
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{How to avoid heap fragmentation}
-\begin{itemize}
-\item GLIBCs malloc() itself tries to avoid fragmentation
-\item The allocator can't avoid fragmentation caused by a bad application
-design!
-\item Try to re-use memory pools
-\item free memory you don't need anymore!
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\begin{frame}
-\frametitle{How to limit memory consumption}
-ulimit:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item ulimit -d sets a limit for the data segment
-\item ulimit -v sets a limit for the virtual memory
-\item Check limits with ulimit -a
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
