The added swapfile with one GB won't help here for a start?
Yes, it will. If it's running out of RAM+swap, then more swap will
help.
I watch the system now, only 6 MB of RAM free now ... the AV-scanners
grab the most ... I already deactivated f-secure

OK, a bit more RAM wouldn't hurt here.
But I am compiling stuff right now.
I would add more.
Services mysteriously dying, surely that could be because the kernel is
killing them off due to an out-of-memory condition?
Shouldn't the kernel *swap*

No, the OOM killer kicks in when the kernel has no more virtual memory,
including swap. Either way, more RAM is the answer. Or fidn the app with the
memory leak if you are unlucky enough to have one of those

You emphasise how old the hardware is, but this really isn't a
problem. As you say, one increasingly fears the death of a system
which is getting so old, but I have two systems nearly as old running
for years without hardware problems.

swap should be OK:

Have you looked at dmesg in case there is something there that the kernel's

I thought maybe the NIC has a problem?
Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
but as it doesn't lose its IP and config I think that is not the case here?
