I've seen exactly this same behavior, on an 8-way Xeon (Dell PowerEdge 8450), with 8GB RAM, but never with either 512MB or 1GB, running 20 instances of a copy-and-compare script using /usr/share/doc from Red Hat Linux 7 as the data source. I see you're using IDE disks, which makes me feel better, as I was testing the new megaraid driver. Magic sysrq works in my case. I've never gotten the oops though, I used magic sysrq to print the IP several times and then tried to look it up. For me, lockup happens in the first few minutes of running this test. I'm happy to try to reproduce it if anyone has suggestions.
Thanks, Matt
