I build with -j5 and 1GB of ram. If it ooms for you, you have a broken

I used a wide array of kernels.
OOM is easy:
compile kde-base or kdelibs with kdeenablefinal or wesnoth.
Been there, done that, no OOM. Your kernel is broken.
All it should take is some extra running programs taking up memory, a
few memory hunry parallel g++ compiles and memory will become all used
up. There isn't anything much a kernel can do except to send the
oom-killer for a visit... Although Volker's reports in another part of
this thread where he stated that swap was not used does indeed seem
strange, if not broken.
