From time to time load average goes exponentially high making system totally unresponsive and I have to do hard reset. This is happening very frequently since yesterday. Today it happened like 5 times. I've seen load average going beyond 40 before doing hard reset. That time in top it shows process compare-dirs with 2-11% cpu usage.
