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.
