Server "Freezes" at least once a day

Hello

I have a Xserve G5 with OS X 10.4.9
I run a Forum with vBulletin (Mysql).

My problem is that almost every day, the server freezes, if i do ping, it works, but nothing else. No ARD, No server Admin, no SSH, NOTHING... Sometimes it came back... and i can retake control. Sometimes it just don´t come back and i have to restart it manually...

I have reinstalled OSX, reinstalled Mysql, everything... and the problem continues... The funny thing is that i´m runing the forum with OS X server for more than 2 years. I used to have a Mac mini G4 with no problems... i upgraded to the xserve, and the problem started...

The site is www.twistedandes.com

Any idea what can be?

Thanks

When the server gets a little sluggish, could you run, in terminal, the following command and copy and paste the result to a post, please?

top -n 0 -l 1
