I'm getting a really odd condition on one of my servers (and I suspect its happening on one of my other servers as well) ... after a period of time (<3 days), the server hangs solid ...

Running vmstat in an xterm, the one thing I'm noticing is that when it hangs, my avm == 12455M and fre == 22M ... when I start the system, it looks like: avm == 246M vs fre == 197M ...

I'm suspecting that the lock up is that fre hit 0 at some point, but I'm at a loss as to why, or where to look, for this ...

top in another xterm when it hangs shows it appears to have more then enough VM:
