My system dont use all ram, only use 3.5 gb ram (of 5.3)
Then use maximum 1.3 gb swap very slow (mouse pointer freezes)
Then, if I open a new firefox tab the system freeze for minutes, sometimes crash and no response any more (but hard disk dont stop activity).
Screenshot show the limits of ram and swap.
The first middle the system was "overloaded" (with 50% free ram and 85% free swap) and desktop not response for minutes. When I closed a program this stabilished.
It has been instaled few weeks ago because an update gave me a lot of trouble with my broadcom device. But this feature (slow and limited swap and ram) was before.
I can hibertane (very very veeery slow) and this is the only way to use more of 1 gb swap.
I am playing with swappiness and friends but without success.
RAM: 6 GB (5.3 GB)
swap: 10 GB
Disk: HDD 500 GB.
