I don't know what is causing it and why the kernel decide to kill these processes.
You're running out of memory, including swap space. When the kernel gets desperate, it will choose random processes to kill off in order to free up some memory. It's less than ideal, but the alternative is to let the machine grind to a complete stop.
Whare has this to be configured? If I run out of swap space, the machine is going to run like glue. The HD constantly spins, and it is hard to kill the resource eating PID, but as I HAVE to do it on my own, otherwise, it WILL make a sort of crash.
