I set up a bridge for my network and I'm having some trouble. At first everything worked great, but after about 3 days of continuous bridging, my bridge machine died. Approximately once a second, the message: "br: memory squeeze!" would appear on the console. Keyboard input was mostly frozen, as well. I could switch virtual consoles, but I couldn't type. No traffic would pass through the bridge. When I rebooted, everything seemed fine.

I don't have a whole lot of memory on the bridge machine, but I feel like it should be sufficient, since bridging is all it ever does and I have plenty of swap space. The system log doesn't should anything I thought to be abnormal. The memory squeeze messages were not logged. Here's the output of /proc/meminfo:

Any suggestions?
