I suppose you get your answers but :
A) VM has major issues
1) about a dozen recent OOPS reports in VM code
2) VM falls down on large-memory machines with a
high inode count (slocate/updatedb, i/dcache)
3) Memory allocation failures and OOM triggers
even though caches remain full.
4) Other bugs fixed in -aa and others
I wonder if your machines trigger 2)?
