Mavericks freezing even after clean installation. Help me, please!

Hi,


I'm having some issues with my Mavericks in my MacBook Pro Late 2011 (below you'll find my system information from EtreCheck).


I've tried update my Mountain Lion to Mavericks (10.9). The installation went well, but after that the OS has freezed several times, mainly when I was using iPhoto and Firefox (or Safari) together. My iPhoto library has more than 200 GB. I needed to forcely restart the machine every time the freezing ocurred. Important: the freezing was not completely; I could do things like show the desktop (I use one hot corner for that), but couldn't open or close programs.


I've got very frustrated and thought about downgrading to ML.


But I tried to do a clean installtation of Mavericks (10.9.1). I did that, but problems continued (different, but continued).


First, I've got a strange message saying that I run out of memory application (same as this one: http://www.michaelkummer.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/2013-10-27-at-2.25-PM-2x .png). This problem didn't happen anymore (maybe because I've deleted all my Internet accounts, as suggested by someone here, because I've received some Keychain's messages asking me to change my passwords).


The freezing problem continues now, but a little differently. Sometimes, when I open my MB Pro display, the screen gets blank and didn't appear nothing in it, and I need to forcely restart it frequently.


Well, that's it. I'm seriously considering to do the downgrade, but decided to try getting help here with you, all the experts and good people.


Thank you in advance!
