Current top view, pretty similar other than swap size - could that be an 
issue?:

top - 10:03:52 up 14:13,  2 users,  load average: 0.62, 0.54, 0.64
Tasks: 122 total,   1 running, 121 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie

Swap:  2232992k total,        0k used,  2232992k free,   267640k cached

I'll grab another snapshot next time it slows down.

Cheers,
