I just thought I would shed some light on this issue. kswapd0 has nothing to do with swap space or memory. kwapd0 is the kernel process which swaps tasks. A task is any thing that has a PID (which includes threads). When kswapd0 is high, it means the kernel is spending more time context switching tasks than it is actually executing the tasks.
I don't know what's causing the issue but you're chasing a ghost if you're trying to tune your swap/memory environment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/721896 Title: kswapd0 100% cpu usage -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
