Somebody else seeing this? Dom0 crashed again during the weekend.. the box
reboots when the crash/oom happens.

I was running a script from the cron which logs the mem/swap/cpu usage every
5 minutes.. Analyzing the log, I didn't see anything special before the
crash.. swap almost totally unused etc. On the other hand, 1 GB of swap is 
easily filled
in 5 minutes if the python or something else goes crazy.. 

During the latest crash there were same kind of messages in the syslog..
python causing page allocation failure etc.
