I believe my screens do not freeze.  I use screen on IA32, AMD64 and
PPC hardware with anything from 64MB to 2GB of RAM.  The publicly accessible 
parts of my profile are accessible here:

    http://cyber.com.au/~twb/Preferences

In particular note .profile has

    test -t 0 && stty -ixon         # disable ^S scroll lock

by far the most common cause of "freezes" on Screen is people
accidentally locking the screen.  In this case, ^Q or ^A^Q will unlock
it.  Note also that I tell screen to use login shells by default, so
that .profile will be read in screen windows as well as the
controlling xterm/urxvt:

    shell -$SHELL                   # login shells by default
