What about using the memory controller for user units to allocate

recent developments, the gnome session uses separate systemd units
(and thus separate cgroups) for various services. We could set attributes
like memory.low for "the basic components of the user session",
and on the other hand, memory.swap.max for "the payload", i.e. various
user processes on top.

This looks interesting. I'd love to see more serious discussion of this proposal. Carving out dedicated memory for essential desktop processes seems like something we should be able to do in 2020.
