I would agree that running out of memory needs to be handeled better. It seems
to me that a good percentage of the time when my computer runs out of memory
and swap my computer goes into a state of being unusable. It seems that after
it runs out of memory the disk is accessed a little once evern few minutes so I
know it isn't locked, but after a few hours of no change I am forced to press
the reset button.
