My Setup: Ubuntu 14.04.05 LTS, encrypted home & swap (but swap disabled, cause mounting wasnt possible... another known bug).
Over the normal ubuntu usage over the day my RAM stays in a "common range". When I transfer data to an ntfs (ntfs3g mounted) partition / harddrive or read from such a device, my RAM fills up really fast and stays full for the rest of the time, till my PC freezes or a force-logout happens. It really just happens significantly when an ntfs partition is used. My btrfs home partition an system doesnt fill the RAM. To clear cache and buffer I just need to "remove the drive savely" (or use the kernel parameter drop_cache). Can anyone reproduce this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159356 Title: System freeze on high memory usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/159356/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
