8 months on and one of my systems is exhibiting what would appear to be
the same bug... it was running Ubuntu 17.04 happily and just got
upgraded to 17.10 with today's updates. (Yeah... upgrade, not
reinstall... not enough time to re-download all the Insync files!)

These were the first lines of `top` as the computer started going into
slowdown:

 PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND     
   54 root      20   0       0      0      0 R  47.2  0.0   2:46.26 kswapd0     
 1678 tracey    20   0 3917924 139976      4 D   1.2  3.6   1:01.26 insync      

kswapd0 went higher then it locked up.

I have a small swapfile, although the system is running on an SSD.
root@tracey-nnnn:~# swapon --show
NAME      TYPE SIZE   USED PRIO
/swapfile file   2G 498.5M   -1

I have vm.swappiness=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf

This is memory when the system is running normally:

root@tracey-nnnn:~# free -h
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:           3.7G        2.2G        339M        998M        1.2G        392M
Swap:          2.0G        498M        1.5G

Suggestions please?
