Same here.Running Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 , kernel : 4.10.0-19-generic , 4GB RAM , 2,8GB Swap on Dell Inspiron 3542 laptop . I boot on 1.2GB of RAM (!!) and system swaps (and stucks...)with some chrome tabs (5 or 6) , eclipse , skype and slack running . This just means that I cant work :) . Its the first time I face this problem on Linux . Even Windows 10 consume much less memory than this one . I am about to try another kernel or turn off Intel microcode .
