Another solution could be to tweak systemd-oomd not to touch dnf when
running a system upgrade (perhaps through
python3-dnf-plugin-system-upgrade). When I repeated the upgrade
process with the second VM and I kept an eye out for memory usage, I
saw that there were more than 300 MB available when oomd stepped in.
Even installations requiring much larger transactions should be fine
as long as there's a swap.
