These lost ticks are reproducable in a few minutes with cpio.

My guess is the sata_nv driver, as it happens during heavy local file read.
The machines all have 2-4 SATA WD Raptors connected to the mobo.

I wouldn't expect you to be running a Fedora kernel. :-p
I usually roll my own, but I've been really backed up with other tasks.

As I said, I'll build some mainline kernels.  I want to apply

code a try anyway.

Lots-o-modules; I'll have to whittle these down.
