My experience is that this is related to running out of memory, and have |
14 |
replicated it several times on boxes with limited memory. To test I had |
15 |
two ssh sessions open running `watch uptime` and `watch free`, and then |
16 |
hammered the box -- the load shot up and free memory was rapidly |
17 |
shrinking toward 0 and then the box froze. |
