Sorry what is the thing I want in this case? No stuttering or no crashing?
Killing the process instead of affecting (or crashing) the rest of the system.
This is almost completely undocumented outside of this HN post (check Google). Can you tell us more about what this does and how it is intended to be used? Thanks!
It definitely gets unstable in those situations, but you probably don't want your scripts randomly OOM killed either.
