Public bug reported:
I just had a bad exerience with oom_killer killing the postmaster, and I
wondering if debian/ubuntu package should use the oom_adj trick to avoid
this.
As I understand it, this would imply:
1) set oom_adj to -17 in the init script (to make the postmaster unkillable)
2) compile postgresql with -DLINUX_OOM_ADJ=0 cflag (to allow the children
processes to be killed)
Does it make sense and could it be considered ?
