I personally have not seen any lockups of the whole system but granted my experiences is only a few months of usage so far.
[However in years of Linux use I've very very rarely seen a box lockup to the point where you could not get into it via ssh or console if you were patient. I've insane load averages make the box look like it was locked but eventually you can get your request through. Linux/Unix boxes do not tend to just freeze.] I would try to have a serial console or Keyboard/Monitor on the box directly so you can try to see what is going on with it. Check the memory usage with the command "free", check console errors with "dmesg" check swap space [also with free], and disk space with "df -h". Load average with "w" and then after a crash going back and really look through the logs and see what the machine thought was going on just before it died. If you can not find anything else wrong then I'd suspect hardware issues, bad memory, failing hard-drives, or a common piece of hardware that has a flaky drive.
