I guess my problem is related to this one. I also run a very memory-consuming batch matlab job (through a perl script). The job seems to run without problems when I am still working on my computer. But as soon as a scrrensaver is starting the whole system freezes. I have a frozen screensaver on my desktop and I there is no reaction to the mouse or the keyboard. Even the power button on the front side of the computer is not reacting and the only way to restart the system is to switch off the power on the back of the computer.
I can awoid that the ystem is going into the screensaver mode, but the problem is still annoying.
