Summary:                    Asterisk suddenly slows down, and eats 100% cpu
Description: 
I'm running 1.4.10 (with reverted res_features from
http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=10415). Approximately
once or twice per week (restarted daily) asterisk suddenly starts acting
slowly, and eats 100% cpu. Call volume drops as it takes really long time
for customers to get to agents, but this doesn't improve situation in any
way.

Last week i recompiled with DONT_OPTIMIZE, DEBUG_THREADS and DEBUG_LOCKS,
so now i can attach debug output.

I killed asterisk with "killall -5 asterisk", so that core is dumped.

Attached files:
backtrace.txt - backtraces taken from core

report.txt - various information ("top", "core show threads", "core show
locks", "core show channels") right before i killed asterisk.

normal.txt - top, and channel count when under normal load (30 minutes
after kill)

cli.txt - multiple consecutive executions of "core show threads" and "core
show locks", when problem raised.

I'd kind of like to see the output of valgrind, when running an unoptimized
build of Asterisk with valgrind.  That should give me a good idea of what
routines are getting stuck in a busy loop, which would cause the 99% CPU
issue.
