I just had it happen again today. As soon as I noticed that used memory was at 92% and swap at 6% I restarted cinnamon from the troubleshoot menu. Used memory is at 22% but swap is only down to 5.7% now. Once again there are thousands of errors in ~/.xsession-errors and the file is now 18,409,103 bytes in size!
Looking in the ~/.xsession-errors show the problem starting at 15:05:55.051, so I took a look at my logs and see the following shortly before in syslog:
Code: Select all

This was logged only three seconds before things went wacky, so perhaps this is related? The first error logged is:
Code: Select all

Any clues here?

PS: Just noticed the following in a terminal window that might be related:
Code: Select all
Gtk-WARNING **: 15:05:52.264: Failed to measure available space: Error getting filesystem info for /media/dhdurgee/a00f3691-d97f-4e54-8b5d-edd26b5bde48: No such file or directory
