I'm running glusterfs 1.3.11. I have cache-size set to '2048MB' in my conf file, but in this particular test I'm running (catting a 6.3GB file to /dev/null), it isn't stopping at 2GB. As of this moment it's gone to 3.8GB and the box only has 4GB RAM; I'm watching curiously to see when the box will crash. I assume this is non- standard behavior? It should stop at 2048MB right?

Vitals: CentOS 5.2 64-bit, kernel 2.6.23.14, glusterfs-1.3.11, fuse-2.7.2glfs9

Below is my entire config file, though the relevant section is ioc.

### Add client feature and attach to remote subvolume of server1
volume distfs01
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp/client     # for TCP/IP transport
option remote-host 10.8.101.51      # IP address of the remote brick
option remote-subvolume brick        # name of the remote volume
end-volume

### Add client feature and attach to remote subvolume of server2
volume distfs02
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp/client     # for TCP/IP transport

option remote-subvolume brick        # name of the remote volume
