...occur. I remarked that is doesn't depend on SMP/UP, ULE/4BSD, i386/AMD64. It seems to occur also with the kernel stress test under the same conditions (all of them). In this case, the mouse is blocked, etc. I tested different kernels, and recorded the output of sysctl vm [3]. I increased vm.swap_async_max but this doesn't change the deal /a priori/. All that didn't occur with a Sempron64. All was slower but the mouse didn't blocked etc. This was a time ago, I may be wrong. It seems to be an architecture problem (??). I can give more quantitative data, but I need help to focus the tests...
