Thanks for answering.
a) The workstation has:
- CPU E5-2687W
- 32 GB RAM (ECC)
- AMD FirePro V7900, original graphics card. (This happens with both the
AMD driver installed and not installed.)
- MegaRAID SAS 2008 controller configured for RAID1
I had a quad PCIe serial card in it as well, but I have removed it. No change.
b) It's was not a fresh install, but it's been doing this only recently. It started out with CentOS 6.3 or so in november 2012.
I saw some kernel oopses as well, I'm wondering whether the RAID controller is going bad.
Hard to tell from this. Anything significant in dmesg | tail? I've seen that damn swapper/tainted, but there's some tuning that can be done, that might be hugepage issues. <snip> mark
