Dov,

I agree with the first response. Your system is failing at an abnormal rate. Please share more information about your setup so that we can help you. Hardware, software, OS, configuration...there's no such thing as too many details when trying to work out these problems via a mailing list.

Information about what tasks you are asking Asterisk to perform and how you have it configured to do so is vital. In particular, I'm curious to know if you're recording the calls using the Monitor() application? 53 concurrent calls being recorded directly to disk is about where things start to go south (it's an I/O bottleneck, not CPU). If you have a Digium card in the box, make sure that it's not sharing an interrupt with any other hardware. The list and the wiki both have plenty of information to help you with that.
