Continuing on in the guest to what is causing the ever present, but random instability in my 10.3 install on a Gigabyte N700SL board, I captured the following processes while the system was rendered useless by what appears to be cron gone mad.

Last time i saw that cron was being called several times i never did find where/how but it was on a machine that runs 24/7 so i canned all the cron-daily mohthly weekly hourly stuff and went back to a sensible hand crafted cron script never had another problem since that was on a suse 10.0 machine on 10.3 not had a problem (YET) althou ihave to admit to not liking the way cron is setup at all these days and the first sign of problems and it will go back to the old style system .
