Hi,

I was debugging performance issues on ci.debian.net today, and noticed 
that s390x was running into memory problems. openbabel quickly became a 
suspect and indeed it turns out to use an insane amount of it during the 
test.

I have spotted at least this (not the worse) in top:
     PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU  %MEM     TIME+ 
COMMAND
  653405 xxxxx     20   0   90.1g  26.7g   9908 D   6.3  85.0  10:04.02 
python3

And the peak I spotted while looping free -h was 72 GB added by the test
and then I killed the test run.

I'll add openbabel to the reject_list and will remove it again when this 
bug report is closed.

Paul
