Title:
  [Asus X401A1] System slows/chugs/stutters then freezes when physical
  memory is low kswapd0

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Sometimes the mouse on my 13.10 laptop starts skipping, the system
  would become unresponsive, then completely lock up, and only a power
  off would restore it.

  Another time this started happening, I closed some apps right away and
  the system stayed alive. I was watching top while this happened and
  kswapd0 is active and my 2GB physical memory is low prior to the
  system grinding to a halt. I'm operating on a sata3 SSD, with 2GB swap
  space which was hardly used.
