When I look at /proc/user_beancounters there is some failcnt on kmemsize and tcpsndbbuf. Is there anyway to know when they got incremented? Do we always need to track the count and display in graph or something?

thanks for the tips. so I guess there is no way to know when it hit limit in the past unless I had been monitoring it? – mask8 Aug 1 '12 at 14:54
