Maybe they went into your logfiles ?
How long did you wait till you reseted the machine ?
The bug we are experiencing with the long linear reads
takes its time before it really kills the machine. For the first 1-2h
the only simptom you see is that the load goes up more and more and
the machine strts to swap, then to thrash and then finally has no more
free memory (and still lots of free swapspace)
For a period of 0.5-1h (before death) the machine ist practically
unusable.
