2018-09-27 13:32:25 Carles Ferrer description I observed this occasionally on Ubuntu 16.04 and very frequently on Ubuntu 18.04 (Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS) I can reproduce it with a regular use of Chromium, Firefox or LibreOffice, by instance. In a system with 4Gib of RAM, when there is "little" free memory, if I open some new tabs on the browser, the system freezes and it's impossible to do anything. Also, there are some worksheets that I can open quickly and without problems when I have a lot of free memory, but when I try to open the same document with little free memory, the system freezes. Sometimes, the system becomes very very slow but I can change to a tty and enter some commands to kill Chromium, Firefox or LibreOffice... and the system responds again. Sometimes, after and hour or so the system accept commands again. Although it's also possible "recover" the system using SysRq memory-full-oom-kill(f), but with the consequence of the crashing of one or more applications (it doesn't have to be the one that apparently caused the problem) In all cases, the hard disk starts to work intensely... until the system has returned to "normal" condition.
