We have quite significant numbers of customers on our machines (around
800 each) and see this on some machines and not others.

We have mrtg showing number of reigistered peers and uptime/reload time.

It normally happens around 24k of uptime and requires a restart,
although we have other machines which have been up for ~4 years without
problems.
