Hi Nikola,

I have also seen some hangs with memcg_stress test on some of my x 
machines. But this is not consistent for me as the same set of tests 
works fine on one machine and hangs on other. Yes this is not expected 
behavior and ideally tests should complete. Can you please give a try 
after changing swap space to twice the size of RAM? Also can you paste 
here the the exact process which is hanging for you i.e. paste the 
output of 'ps -ef | grep ltp' during the system hang state.

Thanks,
Shubham
