Hmm, this is _really_ surprising. The latest patch didn't add any new
logging actually. It just enahanced messages which were already printed
out previously + changed few functions to be not inlined so they show up
in the traces. So the only explanation is that the workload has changed
or the patches got misapplied.

Understood.

Please investigate the crash report for /usr/lib/apache2/mpm-itk/apache2[apache2:3586] uid/euid:1258/1258 gid/egid:100/100, parent /usr/lib/apache2/mpm-itk/apache2[apache2:2142] uid/euid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0

This explains why you have seen your machine hung. I am not familiar
with grsec but stalling each fork 30s sounds really bad.

Anyway this will not help me much. Do you happen to still have any of
those logged traces from the last run?

Apart from that. If my current understanding is correct then this is
related to transparent huge pages (and leaking charge to the page fault
handler). Do you see the same problem if you disable THP before you
start your workload? (echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled)
