[nmglug] Freezing

[Brian O'Keefe]

One observation that just came to me is the issue again copied below is 
relating to increasing swap is as a partition in 20.04 but as you can 
see I do not have a swap partition but I have a 2GB something...file? 
Also a couple of screenshots from system monitor. It seems that swap has 
plenty of memory, at least as I run four applications open and hidden 
process. Maybe they are of some help?


Thanks

Brian
