Bug Description
Hello
I don't know if this is normal operation or if it is possible to configure KSWAPD0.
I installed version 22.04 (jammy) choosing encrypted ZFS partitioning in an external disk.
The installation chose to assign the swap partition to SDC2.
On reboot, this partition does not exist. Depending on how I reboot it is either seen as SDA2 or SDB2. So I deactivated and opened a bug
(https:/
However, this does not seem to block me.
So I decided to continue using ZFS.
My first decision was to copy the contents of my personal data partition to a directory under rpool/USERDATA
with the RSYNC command
This action lasts several hours and requires a lot of inputs and outputs. I noticed that firefox stopped responding. Every second, a message asking if I want to wait is displayed.
I also saw that the KSWAPD0 process almost permanently consumes a processor.
All this seems to me to be related to the copy. ( time sudo rsync -av --exclude {'.Trash*
I know that ZFS wants to use the full RAM (6GB) to be able to maximally compress the data.
So my question is whether this is completely normal. I would still like to be able to consult the Internet while copying a directory.
I post under KSWAP0 without knowing if he is entirely responsible.
thank you
