            Bug ID: 96738
           Summary: Unable to purge GPU memory due lock contention causes
                    processes to terminate
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: high
         Component: Driver/intel
          Assignee: chris at chris-wilson.co.uk

I've attached dmesg output. My system will randomly just run out of memory and
start killing processes (usually Virtualbox if there is a vm running). This
causes the machine to come to a screeching halt. Its a huge problem. I feel
like intel just doesn't care about making quality drivers. This machine doesn't
play games all I do is run a browser and xscreensaver. It seems the
screensavers will eventually cause the system to explode for no real reason.

Another thing that might be useful to know is that I run evilwm. Very
minimalist.

Hardware info: 
Linux thebox 4.4.6 #2 SMP Mon Apr 25 21:58:33 EDT 2016 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)
i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

MemTotal:       16267892 kB

Let me know what other information is useful.

Thanks.
