It triggered on one of my systems yesterday, and killed the runaway process.

When we were running tests of a new distributed system on our development (slightly underspecced) cluster, it would kill the distributed system processes when they took too much RAM.

As other write, having slow or "too much" swap can delay the OOM killer from running in reasonable time.
