Yep, my laptop has just 8GB RAM and recently I've got used to running
alt-sysrq-f at least once a day. Usually the culprit/victim is a Firefox
tab with the blue website.
I'm afraid upgrading to more RAM will be easier than fixing this, even
with the corporate IT processes :/ Or maybe the psi work from the people
running said website will help?
