>Description:
Every few days when I check the server the load average will be stuck, by stuck I mean the load average is not changing. I've monitored it for over 3 hours and nothing it stays exactly the same. This is not normal as the machine is heavily used running more than 1300 processes at all times. After a while the server will start to preform poorly and I am forced to reboot to correct the problem. 
>How-To-Repeat:
Just let it run..
