systemd-oomd blows away the gnome-shell desktop session

Hi,

I've been using f34 with gnome/wayland session on a 16MB machine which
has 8GB zram swap configured.

If I build anything large inside my desktop environment (llvm/clang)
from a gnome-terminal, systemd-oomd blows away my whole desktop slice.
This seems overly hostile.

Now in theory I can use systemd-run to run a shell but my
understanding is the DE is meant to be smarter here.

Is it at least launching firefox etc in new cgroups or are all
processes on my desktop in one big cgroup?

Even if it launched gnome-terminal in another group I assume this
would result in it blowing away all my open terminals just to kill the
compiler/linker that is consuming all the RAM/swap. Again this seems
overly hostile.

Any ideas other than campaigning for systemd-oomd to be turned off again?

Dave.
