Bug Description
Whenever an intensive application runs which consumes lots of memory or hard drive i/o, Ubuntu freezes completely. It is even impossible to kill the offending task. Only "solution" is then to wait for the application to finish, or restart PC.
Windows doesn't have this issue as bad as Ubuntu, in that Windows is always somewhat responsive, and you can attempt to kill the intensive application to recover the system.
