For some reason /home/user/.xsession-errors had grown to about 48GB in size.

Maybe that was bug #338009, even though in this bug the file is not _that_ big. See
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=338009 for more details.


Next time this happens, open a shell and do the following:

head -n 1000 .xsession-errors | bzip2 > head.bz2
tail -n 1000 .xsession-errors | bzip2 > tail.bz2

This will save the first and the last 1000 lines of the file, so that we can tell exactly what is going on. These two files should have only a few kilobytes, saving them should take a few seconds at most.
