Replying to [comment:29 vbraun]:
> I've change `virtual_memory_limit()` to default to total swap+ram
instead of available swap+ram. Now its always positive (and quite large
unless you set a limit manually).
Why don't you use 'free_swap' instead of 'available_swap' ?
This reflects the reality and the system settings (for overcommitting) far
better.
With 'total swap'+'total ram' one would potentially end up with too much
swap reserved for GAP.
