Bug #1518457 “kswapd0 100% CPU usage” : Bugs : linux package : UbuntuAs per bug 721896 and various others: I'm on an AWS t2.micro instance (Xeon E5-2670, 991MiB of memory). Occasionally (about once a day), kswapd0 falls into a busy loop and spins on 100% CPU usage indefinitely. This can be provoked by copying/writing large files (e.g. dding a 256MB file), but it happens occasionally otherwise. System memory usage (not including buffers/caches) currently sits at 36%
