This is not a workaround -- the OOM still occurs. I had restarted the system,
and the OOM still triggers *every* single time I ssh in.

mcgrof@chivo ~ $ sudo grep DefaultLimitNOFILE /etc/systemd/system.conf 
#DefaultLimitNOFILE=1024:524288
DefaultLimitNOFILE=1024

I had logged in twice:

mcgrof@chivo ~ $ sudo journalctl -k | grep "Out of memory"

Thanks, to be safe I just rebooted. I'll keep the above in mind for the future.
Is there a way to visualize the values at run time which are in effect?
