The memory connection seems plausible indeed.

I'm gathering the pieces of the puzzle and they all seem to suggest a memory connection:
1] The suggestion to turn off LAIM in releasing a stuck CFSW WU.
2] Top3 heavy RAM sysRequirements, in MB: CEP2(1,024), C4CW(400), CFSW (300).
3] CEP2 is heavy on both RAM, and disk (a form of memory).
4] The currently imposed 1-CFSW-WU-per-computer rule to limit the number of CFSW concurrently running with chances of a stuck-CFSW increasing with the number of cores simultaneously crunching CFSW WUs -- the exact restriction under CEP2.
5] Chances of having accumulated memory leakages or dirty data (also consuming memory) -- are higher the longer a machine stays turned-on.

To which list above I will add snippets from your post:
6] "I've encountered this message in the past, primarily while crunching CEP2"; "So, look at how much memory you have and reboot regularly";

Thanks for sharing the tip
