It seems to help. I've now had 9 suspend/resume cycles since the Bios upgrade. They all went smoothly, except for one. In this instance I had a larger than average memory load (firefox ~500M, thunderbird ~300M, Java ~200M, I think about 2.5G out of 3.9G in use). The system could recover after I had killed these three (freeing ~1G), but swapping continued for another 5 minutes or so. I've had 2 or 3 snappy suspends after this one.
Interestingly, before the critical suspend on 'high memory load' swap was virtually empty (~200K), but now, after this critical suspend, swap remains around 1G used, while memory is about 1.7G used. Just for clarity, I did not reboot during this period (reboots are for kernel upgrades or other emergencies :-) Any other info that I need to supply? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1078038 Title: excessive swapping on resume renders laptop useless 20% of the time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1078038/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
