Also, that paper referring to the "experience of 2005" perhaps confirms
that the problem is not new, but there were less coverage of the news a
few years ago.
It also happened in 2007 apparently, and it's not isolated to just one
issue (but rather, 5):

More fun: my (rather large) hosting provider sent me an email inviting me
to check my Linux boxes and eventually perform a soft reboot. They have
detected a rather large peak increase on consumed power in their farm and
found that several Linux boxes have CPU that went crazy.
Actually I've checked and I have some parts of the kernel (ksoftirqd) that
are sucking most of the CPU.
Scary!
