In response to #7, I don't think this is the same issue.  The cryptswap
initiates with no difficulties, timeouts, etc. on boot.  When I first
installed Bionic, ubiquity did not correctly install the swap, and I
filed #1759253 on that issue.

Title:
  Cryptoswap not working in Bionic

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have cryptoswap set up both with the 2 GB default swap file and an 8
  GB swap partition with 8 GB of ram.  However, the system does not use
  this swap when it should.  For example, if I run a little test code
  which attempts to allocate 10 GB of memory in 1 GB chuncks, the system
  hangs with no obvious use of swap.  E.g. running top shows no swap use
  before the hang.  However, if I replace cryptoswap by standard swap,
  it works as expected: allocates the requested memory and exits, using
  swap.  Of course, my disk is slow, so this takes some time but it does
  work.

  I originally noticed this problem when compiling a very large
  application.  The system would hang on ld.  I've checked hardware
  using memtest and stress.  No problems.  This took me days to track
  down but I'm 99% certain now that the problem is with cryptoswap.  If
  I compile with cryptoswap: hang.  If I compile with standard swap: no
  problem.
