Public bug reported: ran precise on a core i5 2500k. When I start minecraft, it works, play with it for a few minutes, and it will hang. The rest of the system looks OK, but isn´t. when I use ´top´ to see what is running, it looks normal, but htop returns a different list of processes with many of them named minecraft. Then I send SIGTERM to minecraft java process. After that point, all invocations of the ps command hang, and the system load rapidly climbs. htop just hangs without ever displaying the process list. Cannot shutdown. Must use power switch.
