What?

I hope you are not confusing the USB/PXE extension pack with the 
client piece, emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions.

Yes, that could be, but you would be able to rule it out rather quickly, if=
 you do not seem to get the system in the "unresponsive" state then I would=
 execute them in a screen or tmux session so they are available for you to =
check out later. In this case a top won't do you much good and you have to =
use some form of vmstat or similar to check out what had happened (cpu, pag=
ing, interrupt storm, context switches, IO-wait, etc.). If none of those in=
dicates problems, and the tcpdump does not reveal DNS problems it may be an=
 issue with the VPS host (if you use a virtually shared hosted service).=20
