That's the time Red Hat has chosen to run regular housekeeping. Logs get
rotated, slocate (or its successor) does a find over your filesystem to
update its database, logs get watched & c. slocate is ( I think) turned
off by default, probably on account of your problem, but if you turned
it on that's when it runs.
Debian does it around 6:00, which I find less conveient as I'm often
using my computer then, and someone else (SUSE I think) does it on the
24-hour hourliversary from your latest boot which I find fairly
inconvenient too.
I don't know of a "good" formula, its someting you should consider when
you install/configure.
