[SOLVED] OOM killing processes when over 50% of RAM

Hi,

Recently OOM has started killing processes when PC is around 50-60% RAM.
Way too aggressive and even disruptive.
How do I stop him.
Checked htop for memory usage so I'm sure about the ranges.

kswapd0 is the trigger.

Thanks

Switching to linux from linux-zen.

So far everything is OK with linux
