Slowed down system with unusual amount of ram usage and hard drive light activity
Post Body

Seems since I switched to POP!OS I've found that my system has been having quite a bit of unusual slow downs ranging from about 10-15 seconds to a minute or two of freezing. I have noticed the few following things when it happens:

  • Hard Disk light is solid and barely blinking
  • large amount of ram is used on gnome-shell
  • I cannot ssh into the box until it recovers

Here is my current htop:

Could it be something with the encrypted swap? I have run GNOME on other distros without this happening and hoping to find a solution because I love POP!
