It doesn't make sense on a server, but on a desktop, unless it's actively thrashing, swapping is normally fine. It's not cool to kill off the user's possibly unsaved work with a few random process terminations.
There are other, more cooperative ways of doing it. For example, always save enough state to restore after a kill when becoming a background task. But it's also more work.
