You might want to check your system logs for out-of-memory conditions. I think the "foo killed" message can happen if the kernel detects low memory and starts killing off processes.

Hi all.  I had a few instances where I left a large build running
and came
back to a message on my shell : "Matlab Killed"

After a few times, it sunk in to my (sometimes thick) head and I
realized
this happens if I have a file or a terminal in the XPS_ROACH_base
directory tree open.  I guess it's trying to remove something, and
fails,
so it just craters.

Beware!
