Comment # 5 on bug 1093791 from Stefan Hundhammer

One thing that strikes me as odd in the "messages" file in the attached y2logs
tarball is the memory usage of "nscd":

[ pid ] uid  tgid total_vm  rss nr_ptes nr_pmds swapents oom_score_adj name
[10170] 496 10170   100869  570      31       3        0             0 nscd

Not sure if that unit are pages or kiB, but relative to all other processes it
seems to consume a lot of memory. This might contribute to the problem in this
(relative) low-memory scenario.

Since this installation uses a http repo in the local network, it needs to do a
lot of network lookups (for each RPM as it is installed). Maybe nscd has a
memory leak here.
