Ok the OOM killer is in play here so we have clearly run out of memory:

    Nov  4 13:08:50 utah-29294-vivid-amd64 kernel: [  245.136816] gtk-
update-icon invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x201da, order=0,
oom_score_adj=-1000

1)  does UTAH configure the system with any swap, and
2) how much overhead does UTAH contribute in the running image monitoring it.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Install utah:
            sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:utah/stable
            sudo apt-get update
            sudo apt-get install utah

  2.  Make the iso readable by the user utah

  3.  Run 
     "sudo -u utah -i run_utah_tests.py -i /path/to/the/vivid-desktop-amd64.iso -p lp:ubuntu-test-cases/desktop/preseeds/encrypted_home.cfg lp:ubuntu-test-cases/desktop/runlists/encrypted_home.run -f /var/log/installer -x /etc/utah/bridged-network-vm.xml"

  Now the trace above could be seen. 
  The installation log containing the kernel log is attached.

  Note: This is reproducible with vm's provisioned with 512 MB memory,
  which is the default value in /etc/utah/bridged-network-vm.xml in the
  host machine. With 1G RAM this kernel trace is not reproducible.
