I have a Huwaei MateBook X Pro with 8 gigs of ram running 18.04. It sometimes gets super laggy, to the point where I move the mouse, have to wait a second and then the mouse moves. I am suspicious that it's Chrome, but I can't tell for sure. I have a 2 gig swap space set up. I think this is somehow related to mem but not sure. How can I diagnose this and anything you can recommend trying?
Thanks for any help,
Kevin

I've got this problem the other day, too.
- Kali installed -> every 2 to 7 minutes a roundabout 10-30 seconds lag
- Elive from USB (Persistent) -> everything fine
- Elive installed on HDD -> lag
- Ubuntu installed -> lag
- Ubuntu Live -> everything fine.
There is no clue in top, dmesg, tail -f /var/log/messages, syslog, smartctl --health /dev/sda (SMART), Seatools (Samsung Disk Check tool), ... Even the HW clock is not affected from the lag.
Next I moved the hard disk to another Laptop -> same lag issue
Last I connected it via SATA-USB cable and performed some read/write tests -> same lag issue in dd, without affecting the OS.
Result: Nor the disk is broken (I/O Errors), nor the arm (parking position click). It seems there is an other chip (cache?) issue.
I recommend: If all commands/tools mentioned above are not helping, try a live-system, than try switch the disk.
