I'm saying that my 60 * HZ is "duration which the OOM killer keeps refraining
from calling printk()". Such period is required for allowing console users
to do their operations without being disturbed by the OOM killer.
Even if you succeeded to calculate average speed of the OOM killer messages
being flushed to consoles, printing the OOM killer messages with that speed
will keep the console users unable to do their operations.
Please do not print the OOM killer messages when the OOM killer cannot make
progress... It just disturbs console users.
