Yeap, this one
PGA reaching 30GB when developers fire up new reports that's doing tremendous hash joins eating up the server memory causing the kswapd to kick in and swapping at a high rate which translates to CPU wait IO and high load average.. basically killing the server https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-AB22fuuzLwE/T4b53Ris6QI/AAAAAAAABio/mu_dIx3A3uE/s2048/20120412-template-PGA.png

already has instance caging.. but since you are hitting tremendous amount of CPU (wait IO) caused by kswapd that is outside of the Oracle Kernel.. then the instance caging will not be able to control that.
