malloc test program
The kernel makes the difference. The attached test program gets oom-killed
in the second mmap() if I call it with e.g.'t3 2 200000000' on a 512MB machine.
For you it will probably first fill up swap, then get killed.
I don't know if it is intentional that you can't use more virtual memory
than physical memory. Looks like a bug to me.
