You mean I should try an older version? Then I think I should try v5.0.x
first. As you can see, it takes time to reproduce it again. I don't know
how to intentionally reproduce it.

Title:
  [amdgpu] Severe freezes that begin with minor stutters

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  It starts with very subtle stuttering that you notice when moving
  windows around, then keeps getting worse and worse until it starts
  freezing the UI for many seconds. I could only reproduce it twice in a
  couple of days.

  The applications open at the time are usually Atom, Firefox, Hexchat,
  GNOME Files and occasionally Eye of GNOME. I checked resource
  consumption at the time of the stutters. Memory consumption was about
  50% of 8GB, while the swap partition was nearly full (after a long
  gaming session). Storage device is a SATA SSD. During the stutters and
  freezes, CPU usage is normal. Through the process list of System
  Monitor I cannot see any application overusing resources. Temperatures
  are also normal.

  One potentially problematic hardware device is the GPU: AMD RX 560 4GB
  (open source AMDGPU). Its temperature and fan speed were also normal
  at the time.

  I know my system is capable of handling this workload. Also, this is
  only reproducible on Ubuntu 19.10 Eoan with GNOME. The LTS version of
  Ubuntu (18.04.3) is unaffected. I have used it for months before
  switching to the latest non-LTS version.

  What I've tried to stop the freezes:
  - Closed all running applications and waited.

  It didn't improve the situation, so I restarted my user session. The
  freezes continued, so I performed a system reboot, which finally
  helped normalize things.

  I did not try to reproduce this on the Wayland session.
