No this did not happen after an upgrade. I built 3 brand new ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS servers all pushing nightly backups to my NFS server. I have no problem with the other two servers as their data is not large. They still work fine. Its always the one with the large data that seems to choke. Which of course is my main mail server.
I'll try the new upstream kernel and let you know how it goes.
