It's not just "low-end users", my interest is in the embedded space 
where it's normal to dimension things as closely (read, cheaply) as 
possible. Random processes being killed off is not helpful, especially 
when the system hasn't actually run out of memory which is the case with 
the 2.6.9+

Chris R.
