Hello,

The issue reproduced again and it doesn't look like a swap problem. Some
details:

on the baremetal, from top:

top - 08:08:52 up 5 days, 16:43,  3 users,  load average: 36.19, 36.05,
36.05
Tasks: 493 total,   1 running, 492 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie

The compute node has 36 CPUs and the usage is now 100%. There are more than
50 GB of memory still available on the baremetal. The swap is barely used,
120 MB.

On compute node, from top:

top - 05:11:58 up 1 day, 15:08,  2 users,  load average: 40.46, 40.49, 40.74

....

There are more than 70 GB of memory available on the compute node. All VMs
are using 100% their CPUs and they are not accessible anymore.
