It does pretty much everything else (no other high loads) Installing cvsup-without-gui from ports is intensive, if memory serves well, cvsup is written in modula2, you are effectively building the modula2 compiler in order to build cvsup. Either add from packages or simply use csup. And run the memtest86 on your system as suggested until it completes at least one - two passes.
