#### Set oom_score_adj

More information on `oom_score_adj` available [here](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt).
`oomScoreAdj` sets heuristic regarding how the process is evaluated by the kernel during memory pressure.
For more information, see [the proc filesystem documentation section 3.1](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt).
This is a kernel/system level setting, where as `disableOOMKiller` is scoped for a memory cgroup.
For more information on how these two settings work together, see [the memory cgroup documentation section 10. OOM Contol](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt).

* **`oomScoreAdj`** *(int, optional)* - adjust the oom-killer score

###### Example

```json
"oomScoreAdj": 0
