I've had problems with Ubuntu 14.10 then 14.04.1 LTS then Linux Mint 17 and now Linux Mint Debian Edition. I managed to get the system monitor app up and found mate-settings-daemon was taking up the most memory and I couldn't kill the process. 1.8GB or more of my 2GB was taken up and eventually the two cores of my CPU started making sine and cosine waves in the system resources tab. I had to reboot again on my new installation. I had hoped whatever the problem was, it had been corrected by the fresh installation.
