This is in a guest, right? Is it possible to try the non-Xen amd64 flavour? I forget the exact status in Squeeze but IIRC most of the domU functionality is present in the -amd64 flavour with the -xen-amd64 flavour only being required for dom0 and some of the more advanced domU features. The reason I ask this is that the non-xen flavour is closer to mainline and therefore should be easier to track down the issue with. If you are also able separately to try this with the Wheezy kernel that would be very useful too. > The thing I noticed was the slab_unreclaimable explosion, by a factor > of 122. That... doesn't sound like something that should be happenning. Indeed. Is the system responsive enough to login and examine /proc/slabinfo? There is probably one which has exploded in size, it may even be sufficient to observe this over time and see if one seems to be slowly creeping upwards towards $doom. > I'm going to try to run slabtop the next time I catch it in this state, > in order to try to glean some more information. That would be great.
