-monitor steps in and kills the browser tab, which seems erroneous. Is it Chrome/Chromium? If so, that's a known bug (https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=333617) Best regards, ndrw

Re: Let's talk about the elephant in the room - the Linux kernel's inability to gracefully handle low memory pressure

is a bit of an overkill. I don't really need these extra few GB or memory, just want to get rid of system freezes. Perhaps we could have both heuristics. Best regards, ndrw

ay correlate with the _absolute_ amount of of memory left, it is not the same. Perhaps weighting PSI with absolute amount of memory used for caches would improve this metric. Best regards, ndrw

ry different from issuing SysRq-f manually on a frozen system, although it would still be a handy feature for batched tasks and remote access. Best regards, ndrw
