Firefox and Insync were killed pretty reliably for me, but other packages as well. I was getting half-a-dozen oom kills a day before I switched back to 57. My second workstation is fully updated and doesn't show any sign of this issue.

We bake Amazon AMIs based on an official Ubuntu-provided image (ami- e6b58e85, in ap-southeast-2, from https://cloud- images.ubuntu.com/locator/ec2/). Previous versions of our AMI included "4.4.0-57-generic", but the latest version picked up "4.4.0-59-generic" as part of a "dist-upgrade".
