I updated my userspace to x86-64, and now chromium likes to eat all the memory and bring the system to standstill. Unfortunately, OOM killer does not react: I'm now running "ps aux", and it prints one line every 20 seconds or more. Do we agree that is "unusable" system? I attempted to do kill =66rom other session. Do we agree that OOM killer should have reacted way sooner? Is there something I can tweak to make it behave more reasonably?
