You are running into an out of memory condition, and when you are out of memory, unpredictible things happen (i.e. clients will crash unexpectedly). Solution: increase swap space of keep less programs resident in memory. Okay, but this condition seems to leave a lot of room for mischief. Seems that ideally, afer some programs have been closed, the condition should disappear instead of linger. |
