Or perhaps the kernel version is not up-to-date. Please also provide the precise kernel version (and included patches). And workload too.

The kernel version is stock 2.4.20 with Chris Mason's data logging and journal relocation patches for ReiserFS (neither of which are actually in use for any mounted filesystems). It is compiled for 64GB highmem support. And just to refresh, I have seen this exact behavior on stock 2.4.19 and stock 2.4.17 (no patches on either of these) also compiled with 64GB highmem support.
Okay, can you try with either 2.4.x-aa or 2.5.x-CURRENT?
I'm suspecting either bh problems or lowpte problems.
Also, could you monitor your load with the scripts I posted?
Thanks,
Bill
