If your normal load is around 50% you shouldn't ever hit that limit. Do you lock all memory used by your RT threads ? If you don't and the system is configured for high swappiness [1] this sort of thing could happen. I'm routinely running big real-time convolution matrices without problems, so it's certainly possible.

It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
