That's some fairly heavy usage. How long does it take to get that much used?
As uptime shows, it's only 21 minutes.
O_O That's a pretty big heap of usage in such a short period.
In a small xterm or konsole, open

Keep an eye on it so you have an idea how much, or if any, remained free when ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ response slipped away. James Knott composed on 2024-01-29 14:00 (UTC-0500):

So it took roughly 3 days. How much free RAM was there before the lockup? When did you last look?
I didn't check. I just killed the power to reboot. It happens 2 - 3 days. It does not happen with 15.4. To check I'd have to fire up my ThinkPad and ssh in.
So you wasted a 3 day opportunity to know if RAM exhaustion is the cause. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks! Felix Miata
