In the general case, isn't this an opportunity to create covert channels? I had understood from previous discussions (here or on the Coyotos list) that application should in general not be aware of system-wide information such as memory pressure because of this issue. Of course, I understand there are exceptions. I'm happy that my video player is able to detect how much frames it drops because of scheduling difficulties, and suggest me to solve the external problem while it stops to play.
