Package: earlyoom
Version: 1.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #1012870
> I have never seen dbus-daemon use more memory than firefox.
> Is there an unfixed memory leak in the Debian version of dbus-deamon?
None that I'm aware of -- but I've just had a similar situation (this
time with killing the systemd user process, which cascades into systemd
going on to a killing spree on the rest of the system), and maybe the
current log can shed some light here (see below). There, I've been
running earlyoom with `-EARLYOOM_ARGS="-r 3600 --avoid
'(^|/)(dbus-daemon)$' --prefer 'contentproc'`.
My I don't have logs of which process has used which amount of memory,
but my guess is that something outside earlyoom's reach has been growing
faster than the small game which earlyoom reached, and so it kept
killing process after process until it found systemd.
Does that help clear up things?
