Yeah. I had the same thing happen when I upgraded to R3.2 as well. I
asked the same thing but nobody replied.

It still happens from time to time. Seems to happen less if I have a
lot
of free memory. Closing down some memory hungry AppVMs seems to lessen
it, but I haven't been able to specifically replicate it.
Interesting, because I think I have more than enough memory (32 GB).
Thanks.
I've got 16GB myself. It's not that the memory is full, but it seems to
happen more when I have a lot of VMs open in one desktop. That may just
be a coincidence though.
I'm glad to see it wasn't just me though. I never had this happen with
earlier versions of Qubes on the same hardware. Not sure if it might be
the XFCE or a video driver issue. (I've never installed the nVidia
drivers.)
