The zombie is draining the buffers until the systems starts swapping

Today we've had another such zombie. I've seen the buffers steadily
decreasing until they were around 7 MB at which point kswapd daemon kicked in
and the system was gone.

The buffers on this machine are around 500 MB when there's no Oracle zombie to
suck on them.
