Please can you run 'apport-collect 1376283' (ideally when your system is experiencing the issue).
Also, assuming you have not created any jobs yourself that might contain confidential information (?), it would be extremely useful if you could run the following when experiencing the problem and attach upstart.state.gz to this report: $ wget http://people.canonical.com/~jhunt/upstart/scripts/get_state.sh $ sh ./get_state.sh | json_pp | json_pp | gzip -9 > /tmp/upstart.state.gz Thanks! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1376283 Title: Process of "init --user" gradually eats all RAM then the system starts using swap and hangs.
