my machine did hangup as growing logs fullfilled partition

the messages repeat many times per second, syslog doesn't interval them with 
familiar:
last message repeats xxxx times
who knows?

it does apply to asterisk, not to zaphfc :(
it was a misleading suggestion, so
i solved it installing in an other more powerful machine:

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 8
model name      : Pentium III (Coppermine)
stepping        : 10
cpu MHz         : 999.556
cache size      : 256 KB
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 2
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca 
cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse
bogomips        : 1957.88

with this hw i've no issues at all; even strange messages i complained about 
in my previous posts like:
PRI: !! Got a UA, but i'm in state 1
PRI: Double assgined TEI!
disappeared by yestarday when i changed:

;pridialplan=national
pridialplan=local

IMHO, the pci bus performance cannot be below a threshold, i cannot imagine 
which could be it
i hope this may help you
