Now it happens again and i was just looking on the server's htop. I'm sure that 
this time it was only one process (apache) running under user account (not 
root). It was taking about 100% CPU (about 100% of one core). I was able to 
kill it by hand inside htop but everything was very slow, server load was 
immediately on 500. I'm sure it must be related to that Johannes kernel patches 
because i'm also using i/o throttling in cgroups via Block IO controller so 
users are unable to create such a huge I/O. I will try to take stacks of 
processes but i'm not able to identify the problematic process so i will have 
to take them from *all* apache processes while killing them.
