[CentOS] Centos 4.7 /var/log/messages file kill process

> We have DELL 2650 server and I found recently /var/log/messages have
> following messages continue pop-up:
You had a runaway process that ate all of memory (mmm! tasty!) and wanted
more, and the dreaded OOM (out of memory killer) started in, and killed
the system.

What's running on it that might have done that? It's got a bug....

Looks like you ran out of/low on highmem or lowmem pages?

check /proc/meminfo

HighTotal:     2227668 kB
HighFree:       362404 kB
LowTotal:       888620 kB
LowFree:          8932 kB

http://www.redhat.com/advice/tips/meminfo.html

Also Dell 2650 doesn't support 32GB of ram, only 12GB, so re-check
what hardware your running(run dmidecode). It sounds like your
using a 32-bit OS, if so(uname -m), then upgrade your system (hardware
too if needed) to a 64-bit OS. Nobody should run 32GB of ram on a
32-bit system that is just stupid crazy.

I don't even think Oracle supports 32-bit anymore.
