Odd. I wonder if you are seeing some variant of the old context swap
storm problem. The "99.8% system time" reading is suggestive but hardly
conclusive. Does top's report of context swap rate go to the moon?
It would be interesting to strace a few of the server processes while
one of these events is happening, too.
