In general, I've never had any trouble with kernel out of memory. It was just that one instance during deleting big IMAP e-mail with Kmail that I saw that message. I guess I was just surprised that it start killing other processes, seemingly at random, while running out of memory. I heard also that Kmail IMAP support is not that great, so that could be part of the problem. -RDB -- - /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign against HTML \ / email and proprietary format X attachments. / \ - Have you been used by Microsoft today?

While I am not as extreme as my esteemed college to suggest you run pine or xfce, I will suggest that you kill Mozilla if it's running. I recently had a bad dimm so I went from 320M to 256M of ram, since then I have had Evolution killed several times by the OOM Killer. [Terminator of backward cattle.=) ] I just shutdown mozilla, or restart it frequently and that solved my problem. I recommendation is get more memory. It is pretty cheap, you can by 256M of PC2100 DDR for about 70.00 now, or at least, I can.

If you run out, you run out. There's no magic number. Take a look at top or procinfo. If you're close to maxing out your swap space, you have issues. Either add more RAM, more swap, or limit your memory consumption (e.g. run xfce instead of kde, or pine instead of Evolution). You can add a swap file instead of a new swap partition if you can't reallocate your partitions. Read the mkswap man page for instructions on creating a swap file inside an existing file system. -- "Of course I'm in shape!

Is this killing of processes a normal thing? Looks like you need to add more swap space to avoid running out of memory. -- "Of course I'm in shape!

FWIW, I usually import ldif entries in a LDAP server with the ldapadd program, which you'll find in the openldap-clients rpm. I recall reading on the OpenLDAP FAQ that ldif2ldbm is more error-prone than ldapadd. Maybe slapadd has the same issues.
