I have this on OSX, which I guess doesn't have an OOM killer; anyway, no, the processes just hang, and no, nothing gets killed. OSX should pop up a desktop warning saying you're low on RAM, but I see none of this.
I can imagine a deadlock when a slave waits for a chunk of` RAM from the OS, while the master waits for the slave... Perhaps if you make overcommitting on a Linux system really conservative you'd be able to reproduce this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
