[Bug 1223296] Re: System freezes when RAM is 100% used

 

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.11 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  System freezes when RAM is 100% used

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  As in Bug #1162073, when my memory usage arrives at 100% (e.g. using
  MATLAB or R and allocating a large array) the system starts to freeze
  and I need to kill the program by terminal (usually loggin in from
  another computer). I have 12 Gb of RAM.
