Heads up: it appears that the Linux stable kernel series is about to get a
sane VM system from Andrea Arcangeli, which has proper page accounting and
does not have an Out Of Memory killer at all.
This will probably take a while to make its way into vendor kernels, and
even then we'll need to keep the warnings in the docs for people running
older kernels. I am not sure at this stage what its status is for the 2.6
kernel series.
I will be keeping an eye on this.
