I very strongly doubt that it actually crashes your kernel - it basically 
can't. Your desktop becomes unresponsive for up to several minutes as the 
kernel has paged out about every single bit of memory to disk, raising access 
times by several orders of magnitude. Disable your swap and try again, it will 
just die.
