Public bug reported:
Simply downloading a torrent at high speed (speed caps mitigate this
somewhat) or transferring large files at high data rates over a network
(for instance transfering files to NFS mounts as some users have
reported) for any period of time longer than a few minutes may cause one
of two conditions to occur:
1) The system Hard Locks (no i/o response from keyboard or mouse and the
display manager freezes) and needs a hard reboot.
2) The network connection freezes, but still identifies itself as having a
signal and being connected. The only way I could determine to fix this was to
soft-reboot the system.
This is basically a complete show-stopper bug as these are common
activities.
