Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

System lags (to a point where it is not usable) after resuming from a suspend 
to RAM. 
The lagging is due to extremely high hard-drive activity. 

System:
Thinkpad T60 with ATI Radeon X1400
Ubuntu 7.10 (Kernel 2.6.24-4-generic)
Catalyst 8.01 video drivers (fglrx)
Compiz Fusion package v. 1:0.6.2+git20071119-0ubuntu1~gutsy1 

To replicate the problem, the computer must be suspended when RAM use is above 
~60%.
Then, upon resume there is mad harddrive activity, but almost no CPU usage and 
nothing
strange with memory usage. The system is extremely slow. I don't know which 
process is
accessing the harddrive so much (how do you check this?).

Running
sudo swapoff -a
sudo swapon -a
fixes the lagging and brings the system back to normal (but this takes a long 
time).

If suspend was done when the RAM usage was low, system is normal after
resume.

The problem does not exist in Metacity -- hence the bug report in
Compiz.

Thank you!
