I wonder why "swapoff -a" takes so long (7:44 minutes). There is enough free RAM space (after resuming from hibernate). I currently have two swap partitions, one on a WD red hard disk and one on a SSD. But even before (only SSD swap space) the swapoff time was nearly the same. mybox:~ # iotop mybox:~ # free total used free shared buff/cache available.

I have several phenomenons which can be related: * System feels sluggish after resuming from hibernate. This problem became stronger after removing 8 GB RAM from 16 GB before. With "iotop" I found, that there is much I/O SWAPIN traffic. * Shutdown can take some minutes * Even with much less used SWAP memory swapoff takes too long Any ideas? What is a reasonable time for swapoff? Greetings, Björn -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
