This has been bothering me for a long time on Ubuntu 14.04. I installed with encrypted home and swap, but after numerous freezes tried unencrypted swap and now just run with disabled swap however it still seems to kick in automatically and start freezing when I run out of RAM. Most of the time when it starts to freeze up I notice and quickly hit Ctrl-W or Alt-F4 to save the system, free up some memory and keep using it.
