If you were, you'd have written something that makes sense.
1. my OOM killer *always* spits out a message when it kills something 2. you haven't written what kernel version you're using; judging from your lack of error messages you're running 2.2 (which has the nasty habit of killing processes under heavy load ... I have a patch out which fixes that)
