Well, looks like it wasn't as stable as we thought... Here is a clip from the logs, this is the only thing other than the ABORT_TASK I could find in the system logs. Unfortunately I have no idea when it stopped responding to my hosts. My friend who was also testing this had virtually the same results (he also gets the frequent ABORT_TASK messages).
