After I upgraded to FreeBSD 8.2 I'm seeing a strange behaviour where my system will after a few days of uptime start throttling and will eventually stop responding.
While it's throttling I can use the system, though it takes like 10 seconds before what I type will show on screen. I can't find any process which is under heavy load, nor are there any memory leaks. I can't find anything in the logs either.
The really strange thing though is that when I connect a screen directly to the server I see the flying chuck screensaver which work smooth. The system respond fast, right until that moment I try to login. After I've typed in the username and hit enter the system stops responding.
Have anyone had a similar problem before? What can I do?
