@yxieca: You had temporarily cherry-picked from the 201803 branch until we had a solution on the master branch. You should probably replace it with this commit, even though they are identical for all intents and purposes. |

Thanks Joe for keeping me honest! :-) |

Configure monit to monitor the resident memory consumption of rsyslogd. If memory usage is > 800 MB for 5 out of 10 checks (2-minute cycle interval, so 10 out of 20 minutes), restart the rsyslog service, because rsyslogd is most likely leaking memory. This is the same change that was committed to the 201803 branch here: #2963.
I tested an alternative solution using systemd (which in turn uses memory cgroups, which are now supported and enabled by default in Stretch). However, now that we have configured panic_on_oom = 2 (link), this will cause ALL OOM situations (even within memory cgroups) to trigger kernel panic. This defeats the purpose, as this solution is meant to prevent OOM situations, so I have decided to utilize monit for this purpose in the master branch (Stretch) as well as the 201803 (Jessie) branch.
