Here it starts again :( The machine is up for a little bit more that 1 day
[root@tux infocast]# uptime
 12:04:42 up 1 day,  3:53, 12 users,  load average: 0.18, 0.37, 0.48

I feel it because the machine seems to be slower when it happens, probably 
because it does have less and less memory available...

And here what the slabtop output monitoring reports :
