I have 10Gb of RAM in this system and run Fedora 26. If I launch Cities: Skylines with no swap space, things run well performance wise until I get an OOM - and it all dies - which is expected. When I turn on swap to /dev/sda2 which resides on an SSD, I get complete system freezes while swap is being accessed. The first swap was after loading a saved game, then launching kmail in the background. This caused ~500Mb to be swapped to /dev/sda2 on an SSD. The system froze for about 8 minutes - barely being able to move the mouse. The HDD LED was on constantly during the entire time. To hopefully rule out the above glibc issue, I started the game via jemalloc - but experienced even more severe freezes while swapping. I gave up waiting after 13 minutes of non-responsiveness - not even being able to move the mouse properly. During these hangs, I could typed into a Konsole window, and some of the typing took 3+ minutes to display on the screen (yay for buffers?). I have tested this with both the default vm.swappiness values, as well as the following: vm.swappiness = 1 vm.min_free_kbytes = 32768 vm.vfs_cache_pressure = 60 I noticed that when I do eventually get screen updates, all 8 cpus (4 cores / 2 threads) show 100% CPU usage - and kswapd is right up there in the process list for CPU usage. Sadly I haven't been able to capture this information fully yet due to said unresponsiveness. This seems to be a relatively new problem that I did not encounter during the Fedora 26 beta - but do now.

There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale. The kernel moves very fast so bugs may get fixed as part of a kernel update. Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 26 kernel bugs. Fedora 26 has now been rebased to 4.15.4-200.fc26. Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel. If you have moved on to Fedora 27, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 27. If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
