I'm really glad to see that I'm not the only one still interested in this
thread.  I don't really have anything new to contribute. I've been getting
about a week or so uptime out of my box. My habit has been to see if it
hangs, then reboot and rebuild latest stable and reboot and run that for a
while. Although now that this thread pops back up, I just realized it's
been 2 weeks since the last cycle. I don't trust it yet, but I've seen
clear improvement since this started.
