Actually, I think I maybe was: I've had a couple mysterious cases of 
logging in after ignoring the box for a few days (day job, you know) and 
seeing my screen session had died. Looking through syslog I see some OOM 
entries. I haven't confirmed that screen was killed because 8GB isn't 
enough RAM to do almost nothing with a pair of 1TB disks, using ZFS 
defaults, but that is my current suspicion…
