(Get the code!)
I feel your pain. This bug affects me just about every day. My computer which is a fast system with plenty of RAM starts out lightning fast and over the course of the day gets slower and slower until it's so unusable I have to reboot. When it slows down 'top' doesn't really show anything but a really high io wait (usually about 80%). I always have plenty of free RAM. I thought it was a bad harddrive, so I bought a new one and the problem is still there.
I found if I create a very small swap file (like 32 megabytes) just so the system can see some swap space it will freeze slightly less often (I can sometimes go two days on this configuration), but the problem is still there.
I'm having to reboot daily like I'm running Windows ME or something :/
