I'm afraid to say, lest I am once again labeled a bad programmer. :)

Disk, lots and lots of disk. No network or audio (I purposely 
constrained those 2).

If I watch enough flash videos, it's 100% sure that it will happen, the 
only question is when. Last night (on r211309) I got through 2 shows, 
and started on a 3rd before it happened. Rebooted, and I was back in 
business. Sometimes it happens on the first one I watch after a cold 
boot.

It was at least a year ago, so no; I can't remember specifically.
