[Bug 1833281] Re: System freeze when memory is put on SWAP in Linux >4.10.x

2020-12-24 Thread Kevin Wortman
I am experiencing this bug on a stock Dell Inspiron 5000 (5482) with 8 GB RAM and the factory SSD. It is completely debilitating. Having 1-2 completely unpredictable, 30-minute-plus, hard freezes per day is a showstopper. I can't trust this environment for professional work, or even to take notes

It seems that zram mitigates the problem for me during a work day. As long as the system doesn't have to write swap to the disk, it seems fine. The longer I use the system, the sooner it is running out of (z)ram and swapping also to disk. As soon as this happens, I get these freezes again. I

Can confirm this on Kubuntu 19.10 on a Core i5-4310U. My RAM is fairly big enough for what I'm doing everyday, but as soon as the tiniest swapping occurs, it renders the machine quite unusable - stuttering window animations, stuttering/hanging mouse cursor, often for 1-2 minutes. As I can see, the

I'm experiencing the same issue since I upgraded to Kernel 5.3.0 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS via HWE stack. This still does not happen with kernel 4.15 and iirc didn't happen with Kernel 5.0.0 (which got replaced with 5.3.0 through the HWE stack). I see a heavy increase in the swap file usage after a

I have similar problem but more short freezes and lags. Is an update of the graphic drives a solution? For some it seems that way. If so why? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1185491/ubuntu-19-10-freezes-and-lags- reguarly -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

Same issue here, although I run Fedora 31 with KDE Plasma DE. Swapping with 5.2.17 works fine, even when using 4GB of swap for several days. Swapping with 5.3.2 causes a complete freeze, i.e. screen freezes up, no mouse movement, no TTY access. I did not try SYSRQ keys. System under test: HP

As insane as it seems... Reverting back to EXT4 from BTRFS fixed the problem... So for me, it is an issue when BTRFS is used as root partition. I wasn't even using swap files -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
