First off, there is no 5.0 STABLE. If you cvsup'd to 5.x this is the source of your problems as that is the development branch.
To better understand what problems you are having, you need to give information like a crash dump.
Compile a debug kernel for the machine that is crashing See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html
enable the saving of your core dump on your swap partition. e.g. if you have it on a 3ware card add
dumpdev="/dev/twed0b" # Device name to crashdump to (or NO).
dumpdir="/var/crash" # Directory where crash dumps are to be stored
to /etc/rc.conf
and reboot or type /sbin/dumpon /dev/twed0b
or if you have an ide drive and the swap is on ad0s1b, then /sbin/dumpon /dev/ad0s1b
when your machine crashes / panics,
type gdb -k kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0
and type bt
send the results to the stable list, which if you track stable you should be following.

After applying the last set of patches via a cvs run of RELENG_4, I have servers crashing and rebooting that had run for months on end prior to the "fixes".
This is happening on 4.8-STABLE (now called 4.9-RC) and on 5.0-STABLE servers. I am really concerned about about this as are my higher ups. I have been running FreeBSD on my servers for the past 8 years and I am very familiar with how to build kernels, update source trees, etc. Reverting back to the sources prior to the recent kernel changes, makes things stable again.
Can anyone shed light on this or speak up if you are having the same problems?
Thanks in advance, Jeff
