Is there any update on this problem?
To reiterate my particular hardware involved that can trigger this
problem:

Dell 2650, Dual 2.4Ghz Xeon processors (hyperthreading no, though the
problem occured in 2.4.20 without hyperthreading disabled via "noht")

4 GB of ram
Only load is PostgreSQL related (i.e, network queries, plus twice daily
dumps of the database to a NFS store, and a rsync back to the server for
a second copy)

Under load, I repeatedly saw containers go offline.

Dell's recommended hardware diagnostics do not turn up anything (at
all!)

The harddrive are Fujitsu drives, so the Seagate Firmware issue should
not affect them.

I have since taken this server out of production.  Unfortunately, this
makes the error much harder to trigger (i.e, I have failed so far to
trigger it, even with multiple bonnie++ runs)

Suggestions, diagnostics, etc, would be greatly appreciated.
