After implementing the HWE stack to diagnose another bug (Bug #1313158), my system has never been the same.
All kinds of errors have been plaguing the OS.
For example, Bug #1568425 which involves gedit (probably a red herring).
I have had launcher involved in a freeze.
Another worrisome behaviour is Bug #1561973 which involves initramfs (probably also a red herring). Sophos AV scan claims there is no problem on this machine.
There is such an overwhelming barrage of problems on this HWE enabled 14.04 that I will soon overwrite everything with Ubuntu 16.04 and never go near HWE for as long as I live.
