Hi!
First, please always use the mysqlbug script when posting question;
This script will collect some information that we need to be able to
give an fast accurate answer.
I haven't ever heard about a problem like the above. The only
suggestion I can give, based on the above information, is to restart
mysqld with --log and when this happens again check the log for clues
of what is happening.
Regards,
Monty
