Hello world :-) I have noticed some bad thing with the X11 Intel driver (12.1-RELEASE AMD64 with latest intel driver from 2018???) - it eats out all of the RAM, then it eats all of the SWAP, then system gets unusable for anything except hard reset :-( This happens when it works together with latest DRM i915KMS. On hard computer use that means workstation gets useless in around 15 minutes. Closing applications does not free the memory resources, once it get some some it never returns. I have set the UXA as the default for i5-5300U CPU. On the other hand the DRM i915kms works fine with SCFB on the same load and hardware. I am working on DRM + i915kms + SCFB so far. This is why I suspect problem with X11-INTEL driver? Maybe it does not like latest Xorg changes? I also sometimes get this DRM warning on the dmesg: [drm] Reducing the compressed framebuffer size. This may lead to less power savings than a non-reduced-size. Try to increase stolen memory size if available in BIOS. Did anyone observe such problem too?
