In the other direction, I would recommend removing swap and reducing RAM to 256MB. For a service like DHCPd, it's better to fail and restart than to just try to eat all available memory. Then set vm.overcommit_memory=2 in sysctl to enforce that rather than OOMd. That said, there is probably something else going on here. Logs on a tmpfs, maybe? -dsr-
