@ccheney Do you have any new information on this bug? Did your trick with drop_caches work eventually? I'm experiencing the same issue for quite some time with both KDE and Gnome (to support the fact that it's DE agnostic) and it definitely seems to occur at times when system starts caching. The GUI becomes completely unresponsive (including the mouse pointer) and the io indicator on laptop blinks violently. Each time this happens I make sure to check and confirm that the amount of swapped data is significant enough (from half a gigabyte to couple of gigabytes)
