Thank Peter for you answer and you test.
I fully understand that there is a bug in epiphany browser and that one shall be
reported both against the package as I consider this serious and against the
upstream bugzilla.
That is not the point I want to discuss, but rather shall I open a bug against
general as the system is supposed to be robust enough against any buggy user
program. This particular capability of Unixes system that make it possible for
multiple users to share the same computer, but also for the same user to ensure
no program is jeopardizing the others.
Isn't Linux kernel supposed to care about this kind of issues? In the past I
knew that if a program was trying to allocate too much memory, more that what
the system could, it used to get a segmentation fault, or similar signals, if a
program enters an infinite while loop it get anyway preempted to let other
thread run... All the nice features that make one migrate from a popular OS to a
nice one!
