Hi J,
After running for a while (random time), the problem
manifests itself, I reboot, it goes away. Does not
always stay away, but at least I can do my backups.
I am not sure where you are coming from.
J. is objection to your use of "fixes". Rebooting doesn't
solve the underlying issue, so it is more of a workaround
than a cure, and may be erasing information that would
lead to an understanding of the problem.
Do you have means to capture packets from the problem
system? Can you do a test with outgoing http, https, and ssh
blocked?
It might be interesting to try a linux stealth rootkit process decloaking
tool: sandfly-processdecloak

You say you have a second similar system. Can you swap storage media
between the two systems
to see if the problem moves with the media?
