This is great! Why doesnt distros use this by default???
Just put plasmashell and a few in there and you will have a working oom killer. Finally.
I will install this the first thing tomorrow
Wait... Fedora has this since quite a while, strange.
Because if i'm rendering on blender on my lower end PC with expected freezes but it auto kills the render?
Sounds like niche use cases
Not niche there can be times when you want to run something heavy and it auto kills the exact thing you are trying to run. You have a 1gb ram device and it kills everything? Thats undesirable
Hm.... the process itself should not take that much RAM. I dont know if normally the OS should assign the max RAM to the program.
But this should not happen and I wonder how "just letting it freeze" works
We do not break userspace in this household young man.
Nohang has some explanations to this.
I.e. kernel devs are ignorant to the issue of oomkiller not working as intended on desktop.
Edit: Lkml is down.
