Agreed, but systemd is leaning very much towards "every problem should be solved the systemd way". I'm totally fine with the idea of all distros having better oom behavior (which I hope is what systemd-oomd does), but I don&#

Someone from netgate implemented it poorly and then the original authors tried to fix it in a hurry but ran out of time. There was also some mailing list drama I think.
