One other person and I have had problems with metalog they since installed syslog-ng as have I and the problems resolved. What I saw was my MTA lockup then it affected logins and reboots. So you might want to take metalog out. I'm not sure if someone has put in an official bug report on it but it definitly is starting to look like metalog has some weird issues happening.
