Turns out this seems to happen (or at least be much worse) when I'm using encrypted swap space with LUKS. I shall report this to the Mint team. It doesn't happen when live-booted from a USB stick on the same system, so good news is that it's probably something with my configuration like the above, rather than a bit of a disaster for Mint 20 in general. For the NAS box, I'm going to cross compile some more tools. On my list are top and free (better versions), and htop. Any ideas for small tools that might be useful? Bearing in mind the ARMv5 architecture and the age of the platform (Linux 2.6, glibc 2.8, GCC 4.7) I might not be able to compile big things, but I have had luck with many things. GCC 4.7 is the newest thing I could get to work, but it seems to compile most things without a problem even now. Hamish
