That's exactly it - I couldn't see anything using excessive memory.

Thats good to hear anyway.

I have 2 qubes, both cooled properly and both have run netbsd as solid as a rock for the past 3 years. My usual yearly upgrade routine is prepare a fresh qube and switch them, when I do this I normally have 1 year+ uptime.

I should mention that I've been using this qube with netbsd without issue for years.

Thanks, I will have a go with one of those - I'll have to lookup my notes on preparing a kernel for debian though.

If it is not the kernel though (I suspect it is not) Any Ideas what I should be looking at to catch whatever is causing this? I've checked memory usage, turned off dma, and there isn't much IO load.  As it's a qube there's plenty of CPU load.

?
