KDE locks up periodically
I'm running Debian/Jessie on an AMD64 system. The problem I'm having is
that every several minutes or so, KDE lock ups.
It doesn't totally freeze but applications might get slow or even stop
responding entirely for a minute or two. Dolphin is particularly bad. It
seems to lock up the longest. However even a game like kreversi doesn't
respond for a period. The mouse responds, as does keyboard input in
konsole, but sometimes even Kicker (or whatever they're calling the
launch bar these days) stops responding.
Iceweasel and Icedove also stop responding when the system all but locks.
I've checked Top and Iotop but nothing seems to be causing excessive
disk or cpu activity. Even virtuoso, which has been implicated in some
slowdowns, seems to be behaving itself. Killing it doesn't help.
I've been working in Gnome for the last half hour without incident, so
It's probably not a hardware or network issue. However, I prefer KDE and
would like to get back to it.
Any ideas?
