Can you elaborate more on the freeze part? Does the system completely freezes and it never recovers or is it a temporary freeze (until the copy completes)?
How much RAM do you have in your system? Can you check if the following helps to mitigate the problem? $ echo $((32 * 1024 * 1024)) | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/dirty_bytes $ echo $((16 * 1024 * 1024)) | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_bytes Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2058165 Title: System freeze on copy large files on usb To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta-lowlatency/+bug/2058165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
