    Hello,
    I have a problem that only appears in Deepin, in other distros that I have already used (Debian and Ubuntu) this does not occur.
    Every time the ram arrives near 98% it freezes for some 5 seconds, sometimes more.

    My PC is old but why it will only be in Deepin?
    Follow machine specifications:

    processor        : 0
    vendor_id        : GenuineIntel
    cpu family        : 6
    model                : 23
    model name        : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU    Q8400  @ 2.66GHz

    You can try earlyoom:  sudo apt install earlyoom
    Source & document are here: https://github.com/rfjakob/earlyoom

    I'm sure this is not a deepin specific issue:

    Do you have any swap space? If not, you can try add some swap space. Refer to: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Swap

    Yes my friend, I have a swap space of 9 gb.

    Try to add 4GB more memory if you have an extra memory slot in the laptop.

    In addition, when does you pc freeze? for example, running chrome, listening music etc?

    Could you execute command "sudo deepin-feedback-fil" to get log and then send to us?

    In addition, when does  ...

    I no longer have easy ram memory, but anyway with more memory will just take longer to occur.
    On that same machine I have Windows 7 installed and it runs very smoothly.
    I have already tried Ubuntu and Debian both worked very well without problems.

    In all systems my use is very similar:
    Google Chrome, music (Spotify or Google Music), Google Drive, Google spreadsheets, Google Docs, Sublime ...

    The problem seems to occur when I super lotus to memory in a short time:
    Example if I turn on the machine open Google Chrome and start opening tabs when memory fills it freezes for about 15 ~ 20 seconds.

    Fantastic, I love it
    It follows, but the "sudo deepin-feedback-fil" did not work so I used the "sudo deepin-feedback"

    I will be aware and when it occurs I will mark the schedule and send one with the logs and times that have occurred

    Thanks

    Debian only needs ~700M memory to run, my machine is 2G, and it cannot even run deepin

    deepin eats more memory than debian...

    As I found in the log, oom happens..

    When this happens, could you please top to see which process uses a lot of memory

    I understand that it is heavier (I even use it without all the visual effects) but should not stop the application that is demanding a lot?
