Comment:

 I'd love to have one of these, but it's going to be a lot of work.  We
 have a start already in the OOM killer that starts eliminating circuits
 once the number of cells allocated is too high, but making it cover all
 the RAM in tor is going to be a challenge.  Probably we'd get some benefit
 from having it cover only the greediest memory-users in the code?
