Just a comment: I think it is better to obtain this from the /var/log/messages file instead of dmesg output. It has readable timestamps, for starters, and more context.
I am not good enough to understand what the system actually complains. I do not think it is a memory problem, could be related to the OS instead. The swap fills although the memory remains free. If you sudo swapoff -a the swap turns into memory, the system turns responsive.
I'm unsure I understand :-?
sudo dmesg reveals a flood of entries (disregard the martians, these are due to a vpn.)
You could have edited them out ;-)
I do not understand if, and if which, hardware is failing. Memory does nor reveal errors. Sometimes I get a complaint about CPU3 should not be sleeping. This is all I know. Thanks in advance if somebody understands (and maybe can a bit explain) the output. Why does the swap not return to memory once memory is abundantly available?
Because what is stored there is not requested by anything, so better stay there out of the way. More RAM is free as a result.

Unevictable, unreclamable, unresponsive........seems to be more a grave than a swap. Complains about a qt problem but I do not understand which kind of. While the system swaps so heavily the memory is free, not even a problem of cached memory. The system has 8GB and when this happens it has up to 25% of unallocated(!) memory, completely free. So this is definitely not normal. If I force back all to ram I have still 15 to 20% of memory free and unallocated. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postfächer sicher & zentral an einem Ort.
