Hi Daniel, Finally, I tried to reproduce your scenario on my side but not able to reproduce.
* Environment: ubuntu 22.04 64G RAM (allocated a process to occupy 32G RAN) NVMe storage 32G micron SD card (dd /dev/random to a 29G file) * A script to reproduce: #!/bin/bash count=0 file="29G-file" while [ 1 ]; do count=$((count+1)) echo "--the $count times" rm ${HOME}/${file} sync echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches ionice -c3 nice cp -a /mnt/mmc/${file} ${HOME}/${file} sync done The result is it was pass 25 times of copying file. I was monitor the system resource that in my case, the swapping was not trigger and the copy action didn't consume too many memory. Could you please help to monitor the memory usage when you try to copy file? ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2022-11-06 17-12-51.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1985887/+attachment/5629411/+files/Screenshot%20from%202022-11-06%2017-12-51.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1985887 Title: systemd kills gnome-shell or gnome-terminal if gnome-terminal uses much memory (50% over 20s) Status in OEM Priority Project: Invalid Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: [Steps to reproduce] 0.
