To be honest, it sounds like something is simply leaking kernel memory/address space. What you might want to do is have vmstat -m looping with a sleep in the background, writing to a log file, then see if you can figure out which number goes up, but never down.. Maybe something is leaking memory that previously wasn't. You shouldn't even need to crash the machine to figure it out, I think (although with a serious kernel memory leak scenario, that might be unavoidable :-).
