I don't run uptime races, I prefer to trust the machine.
In fact, Ken's (on IDE) also degraded in our case (although
much more slowly).

I think that "all servers have leaks" is a tautology, and therefore,
I use reboot as the tool to fix that problem (Not that I don't try to fix
leaks, just that I don't trust that all of them can be both detected and
fixed).

i wouldn't define that as 'unattended'.

machines used to run for months to years without reboots.
