Interesting, about that I made some tests and just realized that in some cases both mine and the original shell implementation are failing on forcing the system to go to swap (the tests I made when the test was firstly implemented did manage to make the machines swap, but in conditions where the system had a significantly higher initial memory usage). I will work on a better heuristic to force swap.
