(Get the code!)
My Setup: Ubuntu 14.04.05 LTS, encrypted home & swap (but swap disabled, cause mounting wasnt possible... another known bug).
Over the normal ubuntu usage over the day my RAM stays in a "common range".
When I transfer data to an ntfs (ntfs3g mounted) partition / harddrive or read from such a device, my RAM fills up really fast and stays full for the rest of the time, till my PC freezes or a force-logout happens.
It really just happens significantly when an ntfs partition is used. My btrfs home partition an system doesnt fill the RAM. To clear cache and buffer I just need to "remove the drive savely" (or use the kernel parameter drop_cache).
Can anyone reproduce this?
