After this, many thing don't work anymore like mtr or sudo, chromium is not 
working. Processes can't also be killed:

Load as reported by 'uptime' keep climbing, from tens to hundreds. Existing ssh 
sessions work just fine, UI is very responsive. I suspect load I/O wait for 
stuck network calls.
But as existing ssh works and ping works (mtr not) it is not everything that is 
stuck just something. 

2.6.35-2 and 2.6.35-1 experience this 2.6.34-5 does not.

Easiest way to trigger is just to surf web with chromium, it seems to be 
trigger more likely with more activity. But perfectly normal use for me and 
it'll trigger several times during evening.
I haven't found way to recover, other than cold power down (soft shutdown just 
remain stuck).
