There were seven watchdog restarts over about 3/4 hr whilst the system was doing a buildworld but this is probably not completely unreasonable. One oddity I noticed is that setiathome (unlike einstein_at_home) has one thread that seems to have lost the idle bit (though that thread appears to just idle). This is equivalent to a process increasing its priority so I wouldn't have expected it.
