I assumed it was an OOM since that's mostly what pops up on Google
searches, but it may not be.

What I neglected to point out was that when I turned on my monitor this
morning the system was completely unresponsive, i.e. no mouse and no
keyboard. The screen showed my (frozen) desktop session. The journal
ended with the crash I reported, i.e. nothing happened after that
including my usual backup and hibernation routines. I had to hard reset
the system to get back in.

It should not be possible for a userland process to cause this, which i
why I thought it could be OOM.
