[Bug 620074] Re: Thrashing turns system unusable

[bbordwell]

@olafur: ok sorry, I just know the code for this fix is not easily
backported and it is a rather large change so I doubt it will get
backported so I was not 100% sure what to do.

@Ole, I have not personaly tested it but here are reports of it working:

Also Some unresponsiveness is to be expected under low memory/high i/o
no matter what, it is a hardware issue not a software one. At its
current state it is just much more excessive than it should be.
