[stable-v2.15] heap: try VMH when system heap is exhausted - #11187
Merged
Conversation
This is a temporary measure before removing VMH and increasing the system heap for Linux configurations. Currently the system heap allocations can fail in cases when multiple (tyipcally more than 5) streams are started. These are rather extreme testing scenarios, unlikely to occur in real use-cases, but to give them a chance to succeed try to fall back to VMH in such cases.
