Right, I did just that and can provide a new log. I was also able, in
this case, to reproduce the OOM issues again and not just the "page
allocation stalls" that were the only thing visible in the previous
log. However, the log comes from machine #2 again today, as I'm
unfortunately forced to try this via VPN from work to home today, so I
have exactly one attempt per machine before it goes down and locks up
(and I can only restart it later tonight). Machine #1 failed to
produce good looking results during its one attempt, but what machine #2
produced seems to be exactly what we've been trying to track down, and so
its log us now up at:
