Years ago I asked what was, and what caused, snap roll in submarines.
I never got a response.
The answer is here at 31:00 minutes remaining.

 
I thought I answered that in this thread


EDIT: I rewatched the video and he gets most of it right; as I said in the referenced thread, it depends on the appendages and he drove a 594 (PERMIT) class which had a much smaller sail and PUFFs which gave it a much more benign snap roll than the previous boats.
