Same problem. This was terrible. I was waiting 4 hours while my PC went
back into normal. I was in risk of loosing important data, so I could
not reboot and running Windows 7 virtual machine caused the freeze (I
didnt realise I dont have enough RAM, but SWAP was empty). When PC went
back into normal state, Windows 7 BSODed but Ubuntu was still alive. It
was still extremely laggy. I opened up system monitor to see whats going
on: SWAP was 50% full and RAM also 50% full. There was a huge disk
activity because swap was unloading (I think it was transfering data to
RAM).

I hope this will get fixed soon. Whats weird I did not expect these
problems on 32 bit version of Ubuntu. I also had RAM and swap full but
everything went just OK.

Sorry for my English if anything is wrong. I also have a question if
there is any reason why swap should be encrypted? Isnt it like
encrypting RAM?
