[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup 2/4] garbage collection: set phase1 LRU cache capacity by tuning option

Christian Ebner c.ebner at proxmox.com
Thu Apr 3 14:27:30 CEST 2025


Allow to control the capacity of the cache used to track recently
touched chunks via the configured value in the datastore tuning
options. Log the configured value to the task log, if an explicit
value is set, allowing the user to confirm the setting and debug.
