Never ran into anything like that in any location, with about 20 times the use stats you post but lower resources, musta been some kind of bug or config issue. Could be a unique feature thing where you had to enable XYZ for some local reason and XYZ is blowing it up, or some log file is getting spammed.
I once had a problem with a corporate vuln scanner that terrorized every open port 80, even internal use only ones, with roughly 5000 HTTP reqs per day one after another like a denial of service strike. That was annoying.
