Sometimes we underestimate memory use by resident data, or users use more memory than we anticipated in their functions. We can identify these cases with periodic checks with psutil, but we don't currently act.

One solution was in #1235 , which started pushing more data to disk.

We might also consider just shutting down the ThreadPoolExecutor during this period until more memory is available.
