Quit Stealing Ram!

Are you absolutely tired of inefficient programs stealing all of your RAM? I know I am, and I made this out of pure hatred of being stuck in an OOM state because I disabled swapfiles to preserve my SSD.

Editing QSR config

Open /usr/share/qsr/qsr.conf and edit the values. Restart QSR to apply the changes

qsr_interval  -> Interval in seconds to check system info
qsr_freeramtsh 300 -> Amount of RAM in MB which, if free RAM is less than or equal to this amount, will initate QSR
qsr_mercy -> Mercy. If 0, then processes will be SIGKILL'd
qsr_offenders -> A comma seperated list of offenders to search for and kill when threshold is reached
