[ubuntu-studio-users] ubuntu studio 17.10 very slow and dev/sda1 at 100% in read mode

[miossel]

Hello

Am I the only one or what ?

I upgraded from 17.04 some days ago

since then, when the machine starts the desktop becomes very sluggish 
(takes ages to display, mouse moves very slowly, the system is not 
responsive at all, etc.)

this happens with kernel 4.13.0-16 lowlatency (x86_64)

using top, nmon and iotop I can see that
/dev/sda1  is at 100% in read mode - this is a Sandisk SSD Ultra

most consuming processes are irq/22_ahci related


when I restart and select the old 4.10.0-38 lowlatency kernel everything 
is correct again

Have you seen similar issues yet ?

regards.
