It's been a long time since this discussion, I just wanted to add
that I've been recently able to confirm the ability of memcg
to prevent single users from DOSing a system by "make -j" - in
a real-world scenario (using linux-3.2.1).
So thanks to all who contributed to the solution in whatever way :-)
(A minor issue remained: The kernel is very verbose when
killing tasks due to memcg restrictions. In fork-bomb like
scenarios, this can lead to high resource utilization for
syslog et al.)
Regards,
Lutz Vieweg
