Early OOM Daemon for Linux

Edit Package earlyoom
https://github.com/rfjakob/earlyoom

earlyoom checks the amount of available memory and free swap, and if both are below critical level, it will kill the largest process (highest oom_score).

Hi, seems You package are good enough for the Factory. Could You submit it there please: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1114589#c9 as I have no experience on this yet. Thanks!

Mindaugas, however earlyoom does not work for me: my custom app has memory leak and it eats all the memory very fast and earlyoom does not kill it. After this I forced to kill it manually then to kill and restart plasma and firefox as they unloaded to swap and become unresponsive. Very inconvenient! Any ideas? Change some settings or earlyoom just unable to kill some apps?
