How can it be that there is a failcnt for oomguarpages, although the

I can only highly recommend against using the debian openvz kernels.
I always had stability problems with them and a few months ago I
discovered a major bug (

<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655385">http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655385</a>),
causing the whole system to get instable/ freezed.<br>

For a few months now I'm using the official rhel6 openvz kernels and
convert them into debian packages as described here: <a

Since then I never had any problems again so far :)<br>
