probably need more info but, in the 10 seconds you show above, your CPU
utilization is 100%, and all your memory is used (freelist looks at
minimum with some page scans occuring)

your kthr r queue (8) is starting to get high if this is a one way or 2
way processor

Post vmstat/iostat for longer period, or maybe some NMON data, if you
have it.
