this test will not prove anything, unfortunately. I performed it;
and it's impossible to guarantee even remotely stable results.
mem-hogger process can spend on pre-fault from 41 to 81 seconds;
so I'm quite sceptical about the actual value of this test.

I did quite heavy testing over the last 7 days, with numerous OOM kills
and OOM panics.
