Hi,

Looking at your logs, It looks like the kernel has decided that it can’t fulfil 
a memory (RAM) allocation request.

There are some sysctl values that affect how the kernel handles overcommitment 
and other things (e.g. reserved RAM for the admin user).

Can you check the output of “sysctl -a” for anything that’s out of the ordinary?

Some things to look at:

vm.overcommit_memory
vm.admin_reserve_kbytes

Also, if you have a big tmpfs that might reduce available memory.

Some more notes about this here:
https://github.com/lorenzo-stoakes/linux-vm-notes/blob/master/sections/oom.md

The “bug” could of course also be that gPodder tries to allocate too much 
memory, and the memory allocation failing is just a symptom of that.


Thanks,
Thomas
