Public bug reported:

I launch an 32 bit, instance-store, c1.medium server in eu-west-1 based
from the official Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Hardy ami-beb993ca and install the
following packages with apt-get...

apache2
php5
php5-mysql
php5-curl
php5-cli
imagemagick
vsftpd
xfsprogs
postfix

...and also make sure all software is up to date with apt-get update &&
sudo apt-get upgrade

Then attach a 10GB EBS volume and use that to store the apache files for
a PHP based website.

I redirect my web traffic to this instance and it uses around 40-50% CPU
and outgoing bandwidth is around 5Mbps

The instance runs fine for a few hours (varies from 2 to 4 hours in
tests) before the CPU suddenly climbs to 100% and the instance becomes
unresponsive.

Rebooting it via the Amazon Management Console fixes everything for
another few hours.

The output of uname -a is...

Linux ip-10-235-21-236 2.6.24-10-xen #1 SMP Tue Sep 8 19:06:53 UTC 2009
i686 GNU/Linux

Attached is the output of ec2-get-console-output of the locked instance
just after it was rebooted
