I did more testing on my box. With the box in an idle state (~0% CPU
load), I used a hitch-detection script (it prints a "hitch" error to
stdout every time the system goes more than two seconds without
scheduling the script) to try the following:

I attached four log files. I notice many rtkit-daemon error messages in
syslog. The process 1962 mentioned in those error messages at the very

Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
Reported this bug as a gnome-terminal issue but it actually affects my
entire X desktop.
My Ubuntu desktop mysteriously freezes until I press a key on the
keyboard or move the mouse. The entire desktop stops updating. The GNOME

Afterwards, the ls command shows everything inside the directory as
corrupted with question marks:
$ mkdir abc
$ mkdir abc/aaa
$ mkdir abc/bbb
$ mkdir abc/ccc
$ touc
