I have on cheap motherboards/RAM.
I've always got about 30 days uptime with softupdates and then a
spontanous reboot, w/o softupdates I got 80 days and then a power
outage :)

Somehow, softupdates dislikes my cheap hardware when it is stressed by
high I/O.

However, it might be in GENERIC but commented out (my favourite)
