.Upgrading on non-x86 hardware caused out-of-memory errors in Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage Previously, RHCS upgrades on the s390x and ppc64le platforms resulted in out-of-memory errors in Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage. With this release, the gperftools package has been upgraded to version 2.6.3-3, and upgrades succeed on non-x86 architectures.

@gmeno what exactly are you asking me to do here?

Maybe I'm confused, but my understanding is that there are no upstream source code changes required, it's solely a packaging issue: you simply need to have a recent-enough package of gperftools available, and pass the appropriate --with-tcmalloc configure option when building ceph.

Shouldn't this best be handled by whoever builds the RPM package (whether we're talking about the product or Fedora here)?
