This is a relief to find! I just looked at htop and panicked over the high amount of “used” memory.

    Didn’t Fedora introduce something that prevents the system from allowing programs to actually eat whole RAM and cause whole system to freeze?

    Are any other distros working on stealing acquiring this functionality?

      They just implemented a systemd feature, systemd-oomd. To be honest, it can cause issues in some edge cases, but it works pretty well in any distro (that uses systemd).
