Lately a Pi2B running buildworld reported an exhaustion of swap, but buildworld kept running and seemingly finished successfully. The report came on the serial console, I didn't find anything in the buildworld log. This seems a very great improvement. Swap exhaustion differs from other sorts of failure, in that one can simply re-try the job with some hope of success when the workload is lighter. Am I interpreting this correctly?
