I use sPPP exclusively and never see any problems. But I'm using
FreeBSD. Seems to me that you use NetBSD. I also don't use any of
the telephony stuff, so rbch never enters into the picture for me.
And my box runs 7 / 24, although I tend to reboot it every couple
of weeks since I track FreeBSD-current.

Do you see any errors, like "out of mbufs", or so ? Try doing a
netstat -m when you see the problem to find out whether you've run
out of mbufs (although in FreeBSD there's a per interface limit on
mbufs, which means that you can still have lots of mbufs available
but the interface may have full queues). A netstat -A might help to
see where packets are being queued up.
