Comment(by ridderman):

 I've attached logs of olpc-update output as well as running top every 10
 seconds in a python script. I think I had ~ 20 MB of available memory
 before the update (fresh reboot), and it ended up restarting Sugar. I was
 trying to update from 2346 to 2363. It seems that the system should have
 more available memory, and that olpc-update should be more tolerant of it
 and fail gracefully.
