I'd like to emphasise that the OOM problem only happens with KDE. I have several DE installed including Unity, GNOME3, Cinnamon. But none of them caused a OOM, at least I never noticed. But in KDE, most of the time when chrome is opened, it triggers OOM. dmesg tells that, sometimes kwin_x11 invoked the OOM or plasmashell.

Most of the time plasmashell is crashed and the opened tab in chrome is killed. However, chrome application will be there. I need to start plasmashell by pressing Alt-F2 bringing the run command dialog and type plasmashell there.

Last night, Even firefox gave an OOM.

I'm attaching a dmesg log hoping that will be helpful.
