Check you memory usage... I and others have observed that slocate (run by 
cron) is somehow leaking monsterous amounts of memory.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100666

I have seen this on two machines at least (the others are up and down too 
often for it to accumilate noticeably), and now disable slocate in 
cron.daily.
