> 
> Hi,
> Tizen 3 does not support out of memory (OOM) killer or memory swap out,
> so when system is under high memory usage, it will become unstable, .e.g.
> the weston server will crash when launch one more weston-terminal
> application, and Crosswalk runtime also catch the similar crash issue at
> this condition which is described in

> Does Tizen 3.0 have any plan to enable the OOM killer or memory swap out
> mechanism?

Actually, in previous tizen, the system-server managed low memory
conditions through low memory notifier. However, the low memory notifier
had legacy and hack interfaces of kernel. Furthermore, system-server was
heavy to deal all of the requests such as device control, resource control.

We've a plan to migrate the resource management features from "system-
server" to "Resourced" which can manage resources such as memory,network.

I've generated a JIRA issue to track this issue.
