There should be no limit on the file size other than the hard disk size and
any OS imposed limits. I have a 16.1Mb files that loads in a few seconds.

It is unlikely 2.6.19 itself would be upgraded during an Ubuntu upgrade. It
may be possible that a library that GnuCash uses could have been upgraded.
It may be worth looking at the GnuCash dependencies for 2.6.2 (these should
apply for 2.6.19) shown in https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Dependencies and
see if any were upgraded. Normally newer versions than the specified version
are OK. You should have the GTK2 libraries for v2.6. The GTK3 and GTK2
libraries can be coinstalled if other software requires GTK3.

dpkg -l | grep <package name> will give you the details for the installed
packages. Unless you are building you don't need to worry about the
development heade files for the package only the runtime. No need to use the
whole package name just deinitive substring will usually get the info you
require.

I am running Linux Mint 19.2 which is Ubuntu 18.04 based but I am using
GnuCash v3.7 . My kernel version is 4.15.0-65-generic.

I only have 8Gbyte of memory and run with swap but your figures for free
don't seem too unusual cf mine
free -h
                    total        used        free      shared  buff/cache  
available
Mem:           7.8G        4.7G        338M        251M        2.7G       
2.5G
Swap:          2.0G         13M        2.0G

/tmp/gnucash.trace  is generated when GnuCash starts up and is overwritten
at each startup. You would need to rename it if you want to keep it between
runs.

Have never experienced freezing problems in GnuCash but I use Evolution as a
mail client and it has produced a fault which wipes the screens and locks
the system. Hard disk indexation can sometimes lock the system up and deny
you access as well.
