My laptop is very slow these days and almost every time I type "top" I can see these processes in it. All have extremely high TIME+, seems stuck.
Outputs from free -h:
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 7.3Gi 4.7Gi 352Mi 2.0Gi 2.3Gi 344Mi
Swap: 0B 0B 0B
A few days before I tried to increase my swap size to 8GB using instructions here, all steps seemed successful, untill the last step failed as it prompted swapon: /swapfile: skipping - it appears to have holes. This is, I guess, the reason of 0 swap size.
How slow my OS is? -- I only have Chrome, Text Editor, Calendar open, and Chrome have 4 tabs, when I highlight and rightclick on something then click on search for xxx in Google, there is a chance that my whole OS freezes, can't even move cursor. After a few seconds everything will be okay, no app would be force quitted by systemd-oomd, which used to happen a lot to me before attempting modifying swap size.
