Description:
Additional info: Running Arch on this computer for 4 years without problems. It started about two months ago that playing videos either with flash of html5 starts to pile up system load, suddenly jumping say 0.7 to 1.3, then 2.5, 4.3... until the entire system hangs. Once the web browser is closed, the CPU use percentage drops within a few seconds but the system remains unbearably slow until system load drops below 1.0 or so. Even such things as "ps -A" lag terribly, and even restarting the computer results in a very slow boot some times. I do not see any unusual io with iotop, any unusual ram with atop or htop and the only thing that shows high cpu is the web browser. I have tried chromium, opera and Firefox. Tried OSS, alsa and pulse. Tried just X without DE. Monitored processes and could not find an even trigger. Played with different cpu governors and IO schedulers. No big difference. Initially started with html5 videos on youtube, and after following wiki, WebM VP8 and VP9 were disabled in chromium and Firefox with no noticeable difference. Then VDPAU libraries were installed and enabled with no noticeable difference either. Some times the system crashes entirely and computer powers down. Steps to reproduce: Watch videos on youtube for an hour or so. or visit http://putlocker.is/watch-brazil-online-free-putlocker.html and watch for about 20 minutes. vlc causes similar issues when playing video with vdpau enabled. System doesn't hang but cpu starts to pile up. * config and/or log files etc. Default settings. * package version(s) === Versions and system info === X.Org X Server 1.18.3 Release Date: 2016-04-04 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux 4.5.1-1-ARCH x86_64 Current Operating System: Linux xephir 4.6.2-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 8 08:40:59 CEST 2016 x86_64 Build Date: 03 June 2016 07:28:24AM Current version of pixman: 0.34.0 +------------------------------------------------------+ | NVIDIA-SMI 340.96 Driver Version: 340.96 | |-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+ | GPU Name Persistence-M| Bus-Id Disp.A | Volatile Uncorr.

Do you have LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME set?
I've followed the wiki successfully: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hardware_video_acceleration
What is the output of vdpauinfo, vainfo?
Although, without vpau the lag mentioned does happen, so still valid? Should I close and open one for Xlib?
Thank you.
Does anything show up in your kernel logs when this happens? Xorg logs? .xsession-errors?
Are your CPU/GPU temperatures okay?
What kind of file / stream are you usually playing in VLC when it happens? Does VLC show any error messages?
Did you set any driver options in your X config?
