I'm very late to the party (catching up on my -stable mail), but I'm curious if these problems also occured under 4.8? I recently had some issues with a box that has the low-end twe controller. The big problem was memory, so that was swapped out and all has been well. I tried going to 4.10 and the box locked up after about 5 minutes of going into heavy swap. That happened a few more times and then I reverted back to 4.8 and it's been fine. I do have older Maxtor 40GB drives, FWIW. Just a little datapoint.
