Description: Early OOM Daemon
Earlyoom is an userspace OOM-killer which can avoid the system to get into
unresponsive state caused by swapping, which is most likely to occur when a
large swap is present and memory is tight. It checks the amount of available
memory and swap periodically, and when both are below a preconfigured value,
it kills the largest process.
