Out-Of-Fuel Mechanism (Linux)

m posted November 20, 2009

The Out Of Fuel Mechanism (or OOF Mechanism) is an analogy devised by Andries Brouwer to describe the insanity of the Linux Out-Of-Memory Killer (OOM Killer).

It substituted programs on a system with passengers on a plane, and memory with weight (requiring more fuel).
