Hello,
I have been running Garuda for a few months. I’m facing the issue that there is periodic freezing on my system. When I boot up the system, there is no problem, but after running the system for about 5 to 8 hours I can see this problem. Every 5 seconds or so, the system freezes for about half a second. I think the freeze gets longer and longer as the system stays on until it gets to like half a second, but shorter pauses can be seen earlier. This can be observed when I am watching a video on any browser, or even watching the system monitor app, the graph freezes at the same regular interval. But sound faces no freezes.
The output of garuda-inxi is as follows -
