oom killing kde erroneously (still)
From: Thomas Fjellstrom
Date: Sat Feb 13 2010 - 18:58:39 EST
For the past couple days I've been getting improper OOM Kills. It decides to
kill ksmserver, klauncher and kdeinit which takes down all of kde, instead
of whatever is having the actual problem.
What I've been doing is copying files with rsync from my LAN's NFS share, to
a USB External HDD, and all the while I have things like konversation (irc),
kontact (email, rss, news), and firefox open doing normal things with them.
Without the rsync, I don't see these OOM problems. But once I start a
somewhat long running rsync process (tens to hundreds of GB @ 40MB/s ish),
kde will be killed after a while (not usually very long, tens of minutes to
a couple hours).
This machine has 4 gigs of ram, runs 64bit kernel+apps, and while its doing
the rsync I have a CRAP load of free ram (minus file/disk cache, at least
half of my ram is free at the time it decides to oom kill kde).
here's my last log:

I think the only reason it stops there is that the rsync job is running in a
konsole tab, so that dies along with KDE.
I'm running 2.6.32 from debian sid, on a dual core intel based laptop.
