I think I'm just going to go on with my life and keep a watchful eye on "/". I will re-visit if something untoward starts happening.

Thanks everyone for you kind attention and thoughts.

Marking this solved.

Not sure if this has anything to do with it.. but since updating this morning (updates from day before or yesterday).. my .xsession-errors has been logging the same error up to 20 errors per second.

I have never ...

It would not appear that there is anything "strange" going on. I just don't get it - why 20GB is not longer sufficient.
