Sorry, didn't know. I supposed from the email of Chris that I should try

Very hard to say, most of the times it is in a few days scale.
Though it happened also after a few hours once.

Concerning actual use: I had instances on several occassions. Just 30min
ago it was while working with shotwell on my photo collection, tagging
photos. So there should not be a big disk activity or so, but a lot
of screen redraws etc when going through the photos.
On other times it was locked screen without screen saver.
Concerning coming back: For me it never worked. I always have to reboot
to get a working state again. Ok, to be more specific. GNome3 is dead.
I can close the windows normally with kbd shortcuts and some mouse
interaction, but no new windows, no moving etc.

That sounds pretty much like my case, but since I often don't use
the laptop for 2 days or so, it might be a bit longer.
