On all of my machines, I am seeing long sequences similar the logs:

Terminating.
Dec 14 09:09:50 lewis systemd[1]: systemd-oomd.service: Scheduled restart job, restart
counter is at 383.
Any ideas what this means and what to do about/against it?
That service has Restart=on-failure defined, so that explains the
message "Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 383".
The only clue to why it's failing is 'timeout'. Connecting to the bus
is the only thing I can think of. No idea why.
