[Rack] Noisebridge-discuss mail server dead?

It looks like my memory limit on clamsmtpd was a bit low (16MB)

Mar 19 20:58:16 m2 kernel: [5761136.017754] clamsmtpd invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0xd0, order=0, oom_adj=0, oom_score_adj=0
Mar 19 20:58:16 m2 kernel: [5761136.017760] clamsmtpd cpuset=/ mems_allowed=0
Mar 19 20:58:16 m2 kernel: [5761136.017880] memory: usage 16384kB, limit 16384kB, failcnt 220
Mar 19 20:58:16 m2 kernel: [5761136.017883] memory+swap: usage 16384kB, limit 9007199254740991kB, failcnt 0

I've doubled the memory limit for clamsmtpd to 32MB.

Andy, please do not enable swap, it just makes things worse.  All of the 
services are memory isolated now, so if there is an OOM, it's due to 
reservation limits on a per cgroup basis.
