Once in this state, the system doesn't recover by itself. When I kill kvm, things seem to go back to normal but if I start it up again the CPU usage of the same couple of processes goes up again, almost immeditately. Only a reboot fixes it so that it stays stable for a longer amount of time.
Only one VM at a time. Syslog is clean. I'll run apport-collect next time I hit it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973536 Title: kvm brings Oneiric host to a grinding halt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/973536/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
