[Bug 1441570] [NEW] System becomes unresponsive during normal usage

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The system becomes unresponsive (including stuttering audio, slow mouse
cursor, freezing) after an hour or so of usage (sometimes more and
sometimes less). Usage at the time was a web browser idling (observed
with both Chromium and Firefox) and a music player (Clementine) in the
background. There were no CPU intensive applications running at the
time.

I was able to capture cpu usage during an episode with the following command (nice set to -20).:
'while true; do ps -eo pcpu,pid,user,args | sort -k 1 -nr | head -30 >> logfile; echo -e "\n"`date` >> logfile; sync; sleep 1; done'
Attached is an excerpt from the generated log file.
