We observed OOM kills of xend after ~20 days in openSUSE build service
workers.  xend reached around 2.5 G virt, 1.5G res, and 1.8G shared
memory usage. Attached patch provides a plug.

Did you see problems after this patch? I have applied it on 3.2.1 which
borks about missing vm_metrics.

Yeah :-(. The patch got committed as c/s 18030. You'll also want 18064 - and maybe even 18140.
