Hello Aurelien,

the trouble is that I suspected various causes, and eliminated them all:
- the /var/log/messages and syslog are empty for the minutes preceeding the
  crash, only occasional '-- MARK --' lines 
- it's not linked to  thermal overrun, as I kept the CPU clock frequency low
  enough to not overheat the laptop
- last, I performed the same simulation under bochs: it is much slower,
  but I didn't get a single lookup. Setup: block device and network emulation
  are exactly the same than under qemu

OTOH, I didn't experience lookups recently (in the last 3 month) in any
other circumstances.

So maybe qemu is triggering some hardware or kernel bug, how to debug ?
