Public bug reported:
Reference: bug 1376165
In /etc/init/lightdm.override the oom score adjustment is set to -10.
But system processes have an adjustment of 0 which means system
processes will be preferred to session process in out of memory
conditions.
The score for session processes should be much higher.
I tried the following test case:
- Take a picture with camera
- Copy it 100 times to simulate several shots with the camera.
- Then go to the Photo scope
- tap on "My Pictures"
With the current setting oom killer selects system dbus or powerd which
requires a hard reboot of the device.
I tried 300 (this is an example to have a significant difference with current
setting) and OOM killer selects unity8-dash (which used 44% of the memory) and
the system recovered without a reboot.
