Public bug reported: Users cannot create more than ~2500 containers due to setMaxThreads being set too low in golang. Typically each container uses ~4 pthreads. Many users may want to create a high number of containers, however that is not possible since the current max default in golang is 10,000 pthreads (https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#SetMaxThreads).
This has been addressed upstream in Docker v1.11: https://github.com/docker/docker/commit/4f37e14e9c1f57015d4a212bc48601eaef0fc733 which sets the golang thread limit to 90% of /proc/sys/kernel/threads- max. Would it be possible for Ubuntu 16.04 to include this fix in the v1.10 docker binaries? ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Assignee: Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) Status: New ** Tags: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-140060 severity-high targetmilestone-inin--- ** Tags added: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-140060 severity-high targetmilestone-inin--- ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567090 Title: Cannot create more than ~2500 containers due to golang setMaxThreads param To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1567090/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
