Subject: Re: MGLRU premature memcg OOM on slow writes

Hi Yu,

Following up since it's been a few weeks since I reported this. If MGLRU does 
not handle writeback pressure on slow devices without OOM, that seems like a 
pretty significant problem, so I'd appreciate your opinion on the issue.

Thanks,

Chris
