To follow up on my own posting, I wonder if I am running out of "low
memory", even though plenty of "high memory" is available. Running just
my usual desktop basics of Thunderbird + Firefox on KDE4, "free -lm"
shows:
b...@gecko2:/var/log$ free -lm
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2004 1956 47 0 79 1375
Low: 849 803 46
High: 1154 1152 1
-/+ buffers/cache: 501 1502
Swap: 0 0 0
So high mem is completely full, but 1501MB can be evicted as it is
cache. Low mem has only 46MB free and nothing can be evicted there.
Starting another couple of apps pushes me over the edge and low memory
is exhausted.
I wonder how I can mitigate this? I am not running a heavy workload.
