I don't believe it is a memory, IO or hardware problem (at this
point).  I ran the above test simultaneously with "stress --io 10
--hdd 10" for several hours.  No problems.

I believe the problem is NFS locking up the machine.  If I run the
same "stress" program on a client machine, where the working
directory is NFS mounted to the server, then I can cause a lockup
almost instantaneously.

Has anyone else seen hard lockups like this with NFS?

Any fixes?

Thanks,
Matt
