Hehe, no.  It's got 32 Gig of ram and is using 25G of that for kernel
cache.  There are no entries in any log for oom killer that I can see.

Hmmm.  I'm running the latest Ubuntu LTS with 2.6.24-19-server kernel.

Just ran the latest apt-get upgrade and only was missing an update to
pciutils.

btw, here's the output of free:

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:      33080292   32983004      97288          0      87992   24882632
-/+ buffers/cache:    8012380   25067912
Swap:      7815580        144    7815436

Interesting thing, I've got a machine with the same configuration
sitting next to it that's not doing this.  But it seems odd it could
be hardware induced.
