Well, in that case it's a good thing I guess. Windows is orders of magnitude better when it comes to memory management on the desktop compared to Linux. Like why would I even want a single process killed by OOM killer? On Windows things just work, or get slow. On Linux it works and then mayhem ensues.
Last year I was writing a reply on a forum in Firefox on Linux when the OOM killer decided to nuke Firefox. Poof gone, mid keystroke. How does anyone think that's acceptable?
This was on a stock Linux distro, nothing special.
