Actually, this kind of problem is important or normal.

Do you see an increased memory usage? Is the computer swapping or so?

Could you try to locate whether the type of screensaver has an impact?
For instance, does a plain black screensaver do the same? What about
3D/OpenGL?

Please switch back to the nv driver and send the whole output of
    /usr/share/bug/xserver-xorg/script 3>&1
(it should have been automatically included by the reportbug tool).

Doing this right after the problem occured and before restarting a new X
session would be the best (in case smething appears in Xorg.0.log).
