Before executing the queries, the app reads a small XML file, to get
names and paths, basically. I could simply execute the query in the
console client, to isolate it. Would it be enough?
Just now I'm testing what happens if I add vm.overcommit_memory=2 to
sysctl.conf, and execute sysctl -p. If crashes again, I'll isolate the
query
Thanks again
