Comment (by starlight):
A bit of context:
I wrote this as quick mitigation to an issue, and it works (very well) in
combination with some other mitigations. I've thought about it and do not
necessarily see it as particularly great, just way way better then what it
replaces and I don't advocate activating OOS by default. The supporting
changes to permit dynamic configuration of limits are nice.
I have a bunch of much better and more important ideas I want to pursue
and don't want to spend a whole lot more effort on this one. Please keep
this in mind. I'm willing to improve it marginally, but if it turns into
a time sink you've lost me.
