 Yes, I did. However my system isn't upgraded but a fresh install of
 'F15-all-stock' (i.e. no 'third party repositories' and minor gnome
 customizations). As it is my working computer I couldn't investigate
 the case anyhow deeper than run an eye over logs. In my case the
 culprit was 'empathy-messenger'. Whenever new message arrives it
 pop-ups in a black rectangle at the right corner of the floating
 bottom panel. In a few cases I saw the screen freezed just when bottom
 panel appeared over the screen and before black rectangle containing
 message was rendered. So, I've switched to pidgin and now everything
 works like a charm!

thanks, I will give pidigin a go. my suspicions were firefox, or VirtualBox。

Well, under gnome 3 it lacks damned pop-up windows but I like it for
simplicity and prefer it over empathy since the last was chosen as
default for gnome installations.

 I've done 2 desktop upgrades. One worked fine. One had the problems you
 described (frequent freezes), so I had to downgrade it back to F14.

 Three server upgrades have gone well, but they don't have gnome3, of course.

 Not very helpful, but another data point anyway...
 temperately I use classic gnome instead of gnome 3. It seems working
 ok with classic gnome
How did you get classic gnome on F15?

Was this done using LiveCD or after installing F15 on the HD
then doing a Gnome downgrade?  I would like the details if
that is ok?

I was checking out F15 LiveCD on an older system and Gnome3
popped up an error message saying that it failed, however,
clicking 'Close' on the error popup continues on and I was able to log
in.  I can do a few things but then after a time (about 5 minutes or
so), the system completely hangs. So, I did not want to attempt an
install at this point.

F14 works on my old system with 384MB RAM,  although it runs slow.

Do you see any messages in /var/log/messages when the freezes happen?
