AFAIK there are only two possible sources of signal 9: a manual kill,
or the Linux kernel's OOM killer. If it's the latter there should be
a concurrent entry in the kernel logfiles about this. If you find one,
suggest reading up on how to disable OOM kills, or at least reconfigure
your system to make them less probable.
