No, the issue was with the backend. The frontend was not running. The disc activity sounded like a constant churning, initially I thought it was a surface scan. It sounded like the process was either reading, or writing constant data (there were no fluctuations like you would expect when a process is recording data such as a tv show or similar). The sound is similar to what you would expect if you were zeroing a drive with dd.. (not a very scientific analysis of the situation, I know..)
