Are your logs and data on the same partition? That's a bad idea for recovering from a blown part of the disk, but we also saw that one of our databases would crash when there were lots of inserts/updates/replaces -- other databases, which had the same version of MySQL and operating system, had the logs and data on a separate partition, and they did not crash.
We posited that there was just too much disk seeking going on, things would get slow, etc. -Sheeri On 3/30/06, Christopher A.
