Yes, I see this, although everything seems to wake up again here after something like 30 seconds. I found it to be much worse when I was running two panels, with an RSS reader in the second panel -- to the point where I removed the second panel because the annoyance of having the desktop freeze several times a day was just too much. I don't understand what could cause the problem. It seemed to be associated with a single plasmoid getting blocked. But I have a hard time believing that the developers do not spawn all plasmoids as distinct threads (so there should be no interaction amongst them), so maybe I was just imagining a relationship between a blocked plasmoid and the freezing. But I agree that they do all freeze sometimes. I have run several themes, and haven't noticed any obvious difference in the rate of occurrence of the freezes as a function of the theme.
