Might be, I don't have a chance to test this on a different FS. Thanks for the answer anyway, Dave. I hope, you don't mind, that I keep you copied on this thread.. This matter is, I cannot locate the problem from the syslog output. Might be a "can't see the forest because all the trees" syndrome. Today I repeated that thing with 2.6.24-rc3 as a pae build with openSUSE patches applied and vm.swappiness, vm.dirty_ratio and vm.dirty_background_ratio reset to kernel defaults. It behaves exactly the same, thus it looks like a generic problem. du -sh on the huge tree, this time gkrellmd triggered the oom killer, while the du process kept going.

It's hard to believe, that a current kernel on a current system with 12 GB, even if using the insane pae on i586 is not able to cope with an du on a 1.1 TB file tree. Since du is invokable by users, this creates a pretty ugly DOS attack for local users.
