My JBoss server hits 100% SYS CPU on Linux; what can cause this?

We've been debugging this JBoss server problem for quite a while. After about 10 hours of work, the server goes into 100% CPU panic attacks and just stalls. During this time you cannot run any new programs, so you can't even kill -quit to get a stack trace. These high 100% SYS CPU loads last 10-20 seconds and repeat every few minutes. W...

The OS manages the queue of incoming connections behind the scenes. Two processes cannot bind to the same port at the same time - by default, anyway. I'm wondering ...
