Tom, Robert, others,

the good news is I finally got a few things figured out and I can make
a local 3 node cluster work with artery (using udp).

The bad news is that I keep running out of shared memory (after not
too many iterations of my test).

I am launching my docker containers with 5G of /dev/shm, but something
is eating it up when I'm killing and restarting the controller in a
single container. Once it's gone, artery craps out and can't send any
messages, so the test is worthless after that.

I need to find a way to clean/flush whatever's using that memory after
each iteration, I think.

anyone with any expertise here?

I assume this is b/c killing the process doesn't free up the space. You can set the dir aeron uses via artery.advanced.aeron-dir

        # Directory used by the Aeron media driver. It's mandatory to define the 'aeron-dir'
        # if using external media driver, i.e. when 'embedded-media-driver = off'.
        # Embedded media driver will use a this directory, or a temporary directory if this
        # property is not defined (empty).
        # Only used when transport is aeron-udp.
        aeron-dir = ""

So perhaps set it to a dedicated dir and delete the contents after every run.

However I would first suggest running the test with graceful shutdown first to see if that properly cleans up /dev/shm.
 

Thanks,
