I disagree with that. I think the main complain is that the users expect
to be able to keep doing what they had started, especially when they had
been doing the same type of work for a long time without experiencing
any sluggishness.
It would probably better to be warning before facts than after, like
when the system is getting close from the point displaying a
notification, the same way than you get a low battery warning before
having the laptop suspending.
