8.3.3 is fairly old, they are up to 8.3.9 in that version. seee the release notes for each version from 8.3.4 to 8.3.9 to see what bugs were fixed...

-disk configuration :
3 HITACHI 7,200rpm SATA disks in RAID5

raid 5 performs rather badly on database update kind of operations, especially without a battery backed writeback cache

not saying this is your problem, but its not a real good idea. We use raid1+0 aka raid10 for our database volumes
