^^^^^
This is 1/2 GB ram, and you didn't specify the memory options of the
xfs_repair ... so I'm going to guess at this point that you ran out of
ram. Paging while running xfs_repair is no fun.
How much ram do you have in this box? Next question is, is this an ECC
memory box?
Not sure if you are hitting a bug as much as running into something else
like a hardware limit (RAM) or a memory stick issue.
Do you have EDAC (or mcelog) on? Any errors from this?
Joe
