your problem is probably not related to ike:

This only states, that iked.real was one of the running processes, when
the kernel needed additional memory to handle a sys call. The process
wanted to do something, but couldn't, because the ressources were
depleted.

As you can see, iked itself used very little memory.

"clementine" on the other hand was hogging most of the RAM ...

... which made is a perfect candidate to be killed by the kernel to free
some memory fast.


Please have a look at "iked.real" after it was freshly started. If its
vm_site is not much lower that the value above, it was not a memory lead
in iked, but in some other application:
  grep VmSize /proc/`pidof iked.real`/status

There is not enough information to diagnose, who's using your 7 GiB
swap space. The total_vm column only sums up to your 4 GiB of RAM.
Run "top" and press 'O' followed by 'p' to get your processes sorted by
swap usage, which might get your some insight when you next encounter
such a problem.

You should probably setup a cron job to dump that information to some
files, so you have some more usable data.


Sincerely
Philipp
