Could you share the exact commands to reproduce? I tried dd'ing to run out of memory on r2.micro (1GB memory). Please see the attached command logs. Is this comparable with your results?

What I find interesting is that on 15.04, it runs out of free memory and starts waiting for I/O (no noteworthy use of kswapd0), while on 15.10 it starts using kswapd0 up to 100%, even a while after the dd comand has completed.

Could you compare this with your own results?

Sergii/Sean: do you see the bug on any older kernel versions other than those who come with 15.10?
