Not sure if this is a coincidence or related but I'm noticing several servers wanting to freeze shortly after memory fills and it goes to swap. It's been happening for a few months not randomly.
I started noticing it just after I converted most servers to SSD. I have a swap partition on the drives. In theory this shouldn't make a difference. So might be a coincidence. But - what would cause servers to lock up early when starting to use swap? I show a lot of swap space and the load levels aren't that high. And it doesn't freeze instantly - but not long after swap starts.
A lot of my servers are running 32 gigs of ram so it rarely hits the swap. Just wondering if I'm missing something.
