You said your stats for memory usage did remain low. Was this the case? Couldn´t it be running out of the % of memory used by the kernel? You could try increasing kernelpcent if that was the case.
Do the RAM dimms pass a memory test? Memory errors are fun... I had good DIMMs once and a bad slot, took about 1 year till I finally tried that out and got back to 1GB on my PC. Haven't turned that machine on much since I got my intel mac with Parallels though. (especially since Plan 9 is working so nicely on it now) Dave
