This happend to me _three_ times in the last week, gnome-software runs amok and takes up 16GB ram + 16GB Swap and managed to write a 13.7GB-14.3GB syslog. Couldn't view the syslogs, but there is a comment in another bug-thread on the same issue with info from syslog: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1616332/comments/12
For now i have uninstalled gnome-software, that fixes the problem...
