Wouldn’t it make much more sense to limit the maximum amount of memory available to something like (system memory-500MB) using CGroups? I know configuring CGroups can be difficult because there is no command line script but it might be worth it if it’s such a common problem with your test suits. An easy way to configure CGroups would be to use docker but that adds a lot of overhead in management (not in performance - but you need to have every dev install docker and test the suit using docker). I use swap quite a lot, though, I’m not sure what my system moves to swap though. A large portion seems to be inactive google chrome tabs (whenever I open an inactive tab, chrome freezes for a second and I suddenly use ~70MB less swap.
