>10% and 5% to 1% and 0%
Default values is already changed to 4% (but not more than 400 MiB) and 2% (but
not more than 200 MiB). A nonzero threshold helps maintain disk cache and
speeds up system recovery after correction.

earlyoom consumes 1 MiB VmRSS and all memory is locked by mlockall(). earlyoom
works pretty fast

These processes get oom_score_adj=300 out of the box, see

I think we should protect only basic GUI. On computers with 16G+ RAM locking 1G
memory with apps should not be a problem if it helps to improve responsiveness.
