I have just sent a new patch to the mailing list. I am hoping it will address the OOM crash if my theory of heavy memory fragmentation is right. It would be nice if Nadav could review it.
Regardless if you have another crash in production and are able to connect with gdb, could you run 'osv heap' - it should show free_page_ranges. If memory is heavily fragmented we should see a long list. It would be nice to recreate that load in dev env and capture the memory trace data (BWT you do not need to enable backtrace to have enough useful information). It would help us better understand how memory is allocated by the app. I saw you send me one trace but it does not seem to be revealing anything interesting.
