I just upgraded to precise, and found my computer with this memtest- issue after several hours. I did *not* take a snapshot of my root, but my root is on a logical volume on an encrypted physical volume. I had to perform the same kill as the original reporter did. I am continuing the upgrade now,

Not only images from OpenOffice are to blame here. I just recently ran into this bug by creating an overhead layout of my apartment in Inkscape. I set the page size to 10 x 10 metres, and the resulting image, though frugal in content, instantly consumes gigabytes of memory when I try to display
