Hello,
On my system, a cron runs every day to check the integrity of
installed RPMS, it runs "rpm -v" on each package, which computes
MD5 hash for each installed file and compares this result, the file
size and modification time with values stored in RPM database.
This is the workload. Since 2.6.18-rc3-mm2, this processus eats
all the memory and triggers OOM.
On my system, "free -t" output normally looks like this ("cached" value
is about half of RAM):
# free -t
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 515032 508512 6520 0 22992 256032
-/+ buffers/cache: 229488 285544
Swap: 1116428 324 1116104
Total: 1631460 508836 1122624
After the rpm database check, "free -t" says:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 515032 507124 7908 0 8132 398296
-/+ buffers/cache: 100696 414336
Swap: 1116428 34896 1081532
Total: 1631460 542020 1089440
And the value of "cached" won't decrease.
This evening, this process trigger OOM-killer. Here is its first report:

I gather some data before the rpm database check and near the end of it:

find dmesg and .config too.
