Whats the output of systat -vmstat 1 ?
I have never used this command, so I do not know what it means. :-)

Possible hardware problem perhaps? Are you able to run a burn-in
test on the machine?
What is that? How can I perform that? (Tomorrow the machine will be
free, I can play with it.)
I can imagine that the processor is overheated and so the frequency was
reduced by the BIOS. But that does not

Looks like processes on this system are forking at a rate of 5000/sec.

One possibility is that your CPU fan has failed, in which case newer
machines would downclock itself extremely in order to avoid burning
out-- that might be an explanation for why your performance has
decreased so much.
The cpu fan is not failed. This was the first thing I checked before

Ouch, that's pages freed by exiting processes, not process forks (gotta
get some sleep). Anyway, if this is persistent, then some processes are
exiting all the time, and they have to get created somehow, so the
scenario is the same...
Yess!
That was it! Thank you so much! :-)
