Can this be some kind of misbehaved hardware watchdog (say, built into
motherboard or network card)?

I had a problem like this only it was a weekly occurrence. I tracked
it down to the network card driver. After swapping out the network
card with a different brand/chipset, the problem was resolved. In my
case, i had entries in the log related to an overflowed buffer. Packet

Hi, Andrea, regarding inverted page tables:

Thanks for pointing that out. I believe the entire
line of IBM virtual memory hardware that supports
IBM's form of "inverted page tables" is all directly
related, if not the same, and descends f

I just recompiled the kernel (4.10 patchlevel 3) and installed it. It's in use
right now and I can't reboot it, but it may do so for me! 8- ). If not,
I'll do it early tommorow AM. I used options DDB and DD

Could there be some more elaboration on these memory issues.
From the way you described it, it sounds like if you have two machines
serving the same function with the same load, and one machine has 512Mb
and the other has 2.5Gb, the one with more memory might be prone to be

I have had this problem now with at least 3 FreeBSD servers over a period of
about 2 years. I had put it down to some hardware problem but it seems to be
too much of a coincidence with 3 different machines doing the same thing.
The first time was when I put 4.5-RELEASE on a brand new Dell Powere
