I'm having the exact same symptoms as above. Lately though, simply opening acroread nearly instantly crashes X, bringing up the gdm login. After logging in again, X crashes again before desktop is loaded, and must be completely restarted. This has also started happening intermittently with flash 10, though a quick ps afterwards doesn't show flash still running and gobbling up memory like acroread does.
