Just to close the loop on this -- the issue was caused by our load balancer's keepalive mechanism, which was set to "tcp". Since the kernel-based tcp stack generally keeps functioning even when a server hangs itself from an Out Of Memory condition, the load balancer still sees the server as being alive and well.

We've changed the keepalive mechanism for Bugzilla to an HTTP HEAD request. This should be much more reliable, as it depends on a fully functional Apache http server's response.

One of the three nodes had hung itself. Oddly, our load balancer was seeing it as "dead" but insisted on still sending some connections to it.

We'll look into it. I brought the dead node back to life a couple of hours ago.
