System restore tool for Linux. Creates filesystem snapshots using rsync+hardlinks, or BTRFS snapshots. Supports scheduled snapshots, multiple backup levels, and exclude filters. Snapshots can be restored while system is running or from Live CD/USB.
Describe the bug
The CLI and GUI attempts at creating a snapshot both stall, and RAM memory usage hits the roof. I tested the hardware, nothing really new in software other than routine updates, and never had this problem before. Snapshot eventually will complete, approx 45mins but system is un-usable even after without a reboot due to having no memory available. I don't see anything in journalctl that jumps out, and no open timeshift process but ram remains maxed out and system barely responds, just won't work without a reboot. To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
sudo timeshift --create or using the GUI
Expected behavior
Create a snapshot
Screenshots
I had to uninstall timeshift. The only screenshot I would have been able to provide would be htop showing a maxed ram usage graph.
