Well, I've tried to report a new bug to investigate my own "my CPU does
nothing because waiting is too hard for it". Of no interest of any kernel
dev. So, just as Linus once said "f**k you Nvidia", the very same goes back
to linux itself. Pity some devs think that make their software linux-bound
(via udev only binding or alsa only sound out) is a good idea (gnome and
even parts of KDE). They forgot 15 years ago they picketed Adobe for having
flash for win only. Now one has to use 12309-bound crap for not having a
way to run his software on another platform.

Title:
  Frequent swapping causes system to hang

Status in Linux:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Periodically I notice my system slows to a near stand still, and the
  hard drive light is constantly going.  This seems to be a massive
  amount of disk i/o and it lasts for a long time (lets say 30 mins to
  put a number on it).  I installed and ran iotop (`iotop -a`) and it
  seems to point to jbd2.  From what I can see jbd2 is related to ext4
  journaling, but I cannot figure out how to kill this operation.  It
  might even be a red herring because I have also stopped the disk
  activity by kill either chromium or firefox.  I need to understand
  what else I can do to troubleshoot this.

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:  Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
  Release:      10.10
