Maybe some Linux Kernel expert could help me with this:

Due to the nature of my work, I regularily run a very memory intensive process and my system runs out of memory during very few peak moments.

The system can't swap out memory fast enough and freezes. If I disable swap, the process gets killed instead.

Is there any way I can keep the system responsive? Ideally, only the offending process would get slowed down, but not other applications.
