Hi,

I'm using F23-x86_64 on a Dell E6430 latitude laptop with NVIDIA adapter. 
Sometime in the last 2 weeks, a software update that got auto-installed is 
resulting in very slow screen unlocks. The screen lock itself is quick (no 
paging). But when I press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse, there is 
heavy paging activity on the laptop and it take 3-4 minutes for the password 
screen to appear. This happens 8 out of 10 times.

vmstat shows free mem drop dramatically from 5G to 46M during the unlock. The 
RSS size of Xorg grows from 49M to 7G!

The only workaround right now for me is to use wayland, where this problem does 
not occur. If anyone needs, I have detailed output from vmstat and another 
script that I wrote to see Xorg's RSS size grow. In case anyone has a 
workaround for Xorg server, please let me know. Should I be filing a bug for 
this ?

Best,
Kapil

This is my adapter:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GF108GLM [NVS 
5200M] [10de:0dfc] (rev a1)
