VM killing rtorrent process

[lisas4567]

Hello,
At first I'm sorry for my english and for that I'm asking for something different than rutorrent. I have ASUS WL500-gP v1 with latest version of : tomato ND USB ext, rtorrent, Lighttpd + php (oleg's) and final rutorrent 3.0 Installation from tutorial : http://openlinksys.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=32&thread_id=9158&rowstart=0 was completed with successful - rutorrent is working fine ... for not long time (in most cases < 1 hour). I got in log :

I'm not sure in 100% but propably I have not problem on USB flash but only with external 300 GB HDD with two ext2 partitions (with external power source). It seems it is problem with memory but I'm to newbie to solve it oneself.

EDIT : I have discovered that is memory issue. Decreasing from 18 MB to 0 propably and hangs on router and stops (kill processes like rtorrent or even lighttp).

1) You must use swap file for working with rtorrent on that router.
2) http://wl500g.info/index.php

Thank you for answer. I have created swap on HDD. Now I have 160 MB total memory for router processes
