That is a decision "select & kill" :) Propagation of this decision required time. Not all processes could be killed.

Context switches, parsing, activity in userspace even memory situation is not changed. In kernel space you can use sliding timer (increasing interval) + shinker. ��.n������g����a����&ޖ)���)��h���&������梷�����Ǟ�m������)������^�����������v���O��zf������
