Have you run or considered running memtest86+ from the centos install cd ??
If physical memory problems isn't it, have you done this
chkconfig --list | grep :on | more
And shut off any of the items that are not necessary on your unit?
I can provide a list if you need it of things that are typically not needed
in our situations.
You more than likely know this yet...
ps ax | more
will show many of them as well.
