I remember an error like this from a few months ago.  Are you encountering
large I/O access?  Lots of swapping?  Lots of buffer input?  Lots of buffer
output?  This would show up on vmstats.

Hi,
I have got server runnig 5 days and now its doing this:

2:48am  up 5 days, 11:23,  2 users,  load average: 19.97, 15.70, 10.63
61 processes: 60 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU0 states:  0.0% user,  8.1% system,  0.0% nice, 91.4% idle
CPU1 states:  0.0% user,  0.1% system,  0.0% nice, 99.4% idle

I can't understand where I can got so big load
processor is idle all the time, but load is going higher and higher.

  2:50am  up 5 days, 11:24,  2 users,  load average: 21.45, 17.45, 11.80
62 processes: 61 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU0 states:  0.0% user,  0.0% system,  0.0% nice, 100.0% idle
CPU1 states:  0.0% user,  0.1% system,  0.0% nice, 99.4% idle

What could be wrong?
In log is only this message:
