So, this is a weird issue I'm facing. I really like linux and almost like every beginner I started with Ubuntu, back when it was on 16, and I used it for a while until 18 came out and then I switched to that one. Ever since I did, I started experiencing performance issues that I had not seen before on 16
Normally when using my computer I'm running several things depending on what I'm working on, usually Apache, MongoDb, MySqlServer, some node server instance, an artisan dev server (when working with Laravel), ng serve (when working with Angular which is often). On top of that I usually have Chrome open with several tabs, the IDE and maybe some other software (docs, pdfs, etc)
Of course that does not mean to say that everything I mentioned is always running, but a good part of it usually is. Also I know that I'm not using a high end laptop (7th gen i3, 8gb DDR4 ram, 240 SSD), but still it's not like it's the worst thing in the world.
So what I'm experiencing is, whenever ram usage gets high I get random slow downs, like extreme slow downs (they usually happen when webpack is recompiling assets on Angular but have also happened out of the blue when using anothe app, with the things I mentioned running in the background), the computer nearly freezes, and I say nearly cause I can move the cursor albeit extremely extremely slow, but eventually I have to force a shutdown, so it's basically a freeze. I though one of the perks of linux was that whenever something became unresponsive only that process would be affected and eventually you would get a prompt asking if you want to close it. This issue was worse on Ubuntu 18 (I think gnome made it worse), I have switched to Mint now, and although it has not happened as often, it has still happened.
I have looked into several things. From the gnome bug which eats up a lot of ram, to the impact of increasing the inotify watchers (had to to that for webpack because it was not recompiling once the limit was reached), to reading here and there about anything that could explain why the computer becomes unresponsive on high ram usage, which in my opinion it shouldn't. I would understand if it would become slow, but a freeze out of the blue that just requires restart I find that unacceptable. Specially when friends of mine running nearly the same hardware and working with the same tools, on Windows, don't get that issue, which bothers me cause I really don't enjoy working on Windows.
So any guesses/tips from more experienced linux users?
