I have gone back to Ubuntu 14.04, 15.04, same result. I have bought a new graphics card (went from GEforce460 to GEforce970), no change. I have a new cpu and motherboard, same result. What I see is that in System Monitor, CPU2 or CPU3 (there's 12, only 2 or 3 go to 100% during freeze) goes to 100% and stays there for 5 or more minutes. All other CPUs are at less than 5%. In the "processes" tab no processes use significant CPU. But when I go to a shell (ctrl-alt-F2) and type "top", I see Xorg taking ~50% CPU and 2.4% memory. I can trigger this by starting Android Studio. Sometimes it happens in Gedit loading a large file, or in a shell window. I tried different versions of AS, different versions of Gradle, tried Oracle java instead of openjdk, no change. Most of the times, Firefox also freezes after a short while, then everything freezes. The freeze does stop, after a maximum of 15 minutes. Sometimes, I need to do a hard reboot. First time I saw this "one cpu at 100%" was in August of 2014, which may be when I first used Android Studio and Gradle. Unfortunately, going back to Eclipse and ant is not an option. This takes about an hour of my time every day, so I'm willing to put a lot of effort in solving this.
