My experience is that freezes are almost always associated with the hard drive having spun down, and needing to spin up before something can be read from the disk. (It just happened, as I was typing that sentence.) Tweak power settings to make spin-downs more rare, or banish them altogether if you're willing to take a minor hit to power consumption.
This my experience, too. I had similar symtoms on my machine and suspected the Gnome-Shell. But then I found out that my harddrive doesn’t support the “min_power” policy (only “medium_power”) which I had activated through an udev rule. Regards, coderkun
