Subject: oom killer and long-waiting processes
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2010 15:17:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTik6xP9vVEyW4QG-4RfZu-iEuHcl2pBV_-mfHP4y@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

        I have one question about oom killer:
If many processes dealing with network communications,
but due to bad network traffic, the processes have to wait
for a very long time. And meanwhile they may consume
some memeory separately for computation. The number
of such processes may be large.

        I wonder whether oom killer will kill these processes
when the system is under high pressure?

thanks,
