Seems sort of starved to me; 2GB of RAM yet you have enough processes
active to have allocated all of that plus 2.6GB of swap! I wouldn't be
surprised if occasionally you allocated another 3GB, which would max
out your swap space. With only 120 processes total, you can probably
just run top sorted by size (top -o size, or enter "osize" when it's
running) and look for large ones.
