Post some data.. This public facing? Are you getting sprayed down by packets? Array? Soft/hard? Someone have screens
laying around? Write a trap to catch a process list when the loads spike? Look at crontab(s)? User accounts? Malicious
shells? Any guest containers around? Possibilities are sort of endless here.
