Subject: Re: [BUG]  oom killer not triggering in 2.6.9-rc3
Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2004 14:58:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1097503078.31290.23.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <41672D4A.4090200@nortelnetworks.com>

The OOM killer is a heuristic. Switch the machine to strict accounting
