Running Xubuntu 18.04. This issue has always been fairly annoying for me since I don't have much ram. Updated to 4.17.5 about a month and a half ago, and did seem to minimise this issue somewhat. It's only totally frozen and required a force shutdown once since, though there is noticeable but temporary freezing sometimes. Improvement, but not totally fixed, yeah.
