Do a top on that machine and find out - some runaway process maybe.
dmesg, vmstat, looking at /var/log/messages etc is a good idea. Either that,
or consulting an astrologer.

utility called "split". see man for usage. It breaks a large
file into smaller userdefined chunks with the names xaa, xab,
xac ... To rejoin them, do: '$cat x* > filename'
