Hi
The interesting thing is the use of total_vm and not the RSS which is used as
the basis by the OOM killer. I need to read/understand the code a bit more.
RSS makes more sense to me as well.
Andrea Arcangeli has patches pending which change this to the RSS.
Specifically:

I agreed with you that RSS is better :)
but..
on many node numa, per zone rss is more better..
