I then stopped the stress testing, and had several system freezes since then.
With system freeze I mean:
*) machine doesn't answer to ping, no reaction to console keyboard, no message on the console screen, no message in logfile, no oops, no noticeable system activity
I changed several BIOS settings (disabled hyperthreading, disabled USB, disabled power management) and tried to run the kernel with "acpi=off" and "noapic". I also changed root disk, because I found a SCSI error message in the logs once.
Nothing seems to help. The system just freezes under light load at some time between 1 and 8 hours uptime. It's really strange that it survived heavy load for more than 24 hours in the first place.
I found some problem reports from several people, which sound quite similar to the freeze I see here. These people all had motherboards with serverworks chipset, GBit ethernet and noticed similar lockups or system freeze symptoms. From the reports I'm not sure if the problems still persist or if they should be solved now. Can someone please comment on that?
Here are some infos from the system again:

Any idea how I should proceed now? I really could use some help here, I'm running out of ideas... :-((
