Right, so it is indeed the kernel OOM reaper that's killing processes, as it should. Chromium frontend is doing what it should, in displaying the "dead" message.
What's next is deciding whether the usage of memory itself is a bug. The internal URL chrome://memory-redirect/ will show what's doing what, similar to "ps", if that helps testing. AFAIK, Chromium's memory usage is better than old Firefox, but not as good as (post MemShrink) Firefox. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1096603 Title: Chromium reports "It's dead Jim" on Low RAM machines To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1096603/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
