Hi,

I ran into the same problem on a very powerful machine. In my case the
congestion test was the problem. It finished by eating all of my 128Gb of
RAM.

This problem is known and fixed upstream by disabling the test. I submitted
a patch to disable it on our 3.6.5 version, but it will have to go to
core-updates if merged.

Thanks,

Mathieu
