Last work-around didn't stick. Did some test and can reproduce the error now easily in 17.04. Ubuntu reports it is the Indicator-datetime-service that crashes when its the evolution calendar that is the problem. During the system overload the problem can be fixed by killing all evolution processes and sub-processes indirectly.

Evolution is overloading the Indicator-datetime-service somehow with lots of (factory?) sub-processes.

Attached screenshot of the processes active during the error. Resolved by killing the evolution processes in the screenshot.

Also, this problem started after enabling Empathy on boot. However, after disabling Empathy completely at startup the problem persisted.

Will update to 17.10 (KVM bug fixed) and see if the error is unresolved.
