Hi,

Thank for the quick response. Here is the missing data:

UST
2.6.32.12-205 (I had to make a tiny patch to make it compile)
MemTotal:       24628852 kB
lttng-ust-2.1.2
lttng-tools-2.1.1
lttng-modules-2.1.1
babeltrace-1.1.0
userspace-rcu-0.7.6

Which patch for 4MB?

Thanks,

Not at all a n00b question, but could you give some more info? what is 
your version of LTTng tools, are you using UST or kernel tracing? How much 
ram is on your system? Kernel version? 

I actually have the patched lttng that has standard subbuffer sizes of 4 
mb, so I have not personnaly seen that problem. But the first thing I 
would do is upgrade to the latest stable.

Hello, 

Sorry for the noob question. I seem to be unable to define the total of 
subbuf_size * num_subbuf higher than 4MB. I am getting ~30% discarded 
tracepoint data. 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
