Yeah if you disable the watchdog, you may notice the reboots go away.  If the 
watchdog timer doesn't get a response then it will reboot the machine.  If you 
keep the traffic load high enough, you may need to disable the watchdog.  If 
you try a -current snapshot, you may find some speed improvements.
