I used to use earlyoom on an old laptop and it worked well for my purposes.
I hear there is a systemd-oomd, but I never tried it.
Edit: sorry I misread your post to be about memory rather than CPU. Too early on the morning for my brain to work.




Yes, it is sort of miraculous! And it may serve you well, as long as you’re careful with it. Many cyclists do not favour using it with bikes because it is not a very good long lasting lubricant and will interfere with better lubricants. Some are nervous about it particularly around greased bearings such as a bottom bracket, where it might get in there and compromise seals and good grease. That being said, it is a pretty great product for cleaning and short term lubing stuff in my opinion. Just got to be careful and aware of limitations. However, not sure it’s worth the size of a can for touring. Might depend on a bunch of factors such as type and location and duration of tour. As much as I personally like the stuff it would not be high on my priority list. But you do you! Have fun, however you decide.
