I had this problem a while back and a bit of research showed the
source of the problem to be a/some variant of the McCormick/DeVaughn
'LS' program which would, if asked to do a full, long and sorted
listing of a *large* directory ( > 200 files or so ), hose something
internal and cause this "spurts" behavior. Only a reboot would fix it.
This is not to say that this *is* your problem, just that I was able
to create the same symptoms this way.  

As mentioned before, use of Enforcer can cause this effect if the
program in use is doing lots of reads/writes to/from out-of-bounds
memory areas.
