Yes, the question was rhetorical, but it was time for the OP to come back with more information.

Given that swap has been exhausted, 42 processes are sleeping, the CPU is being chewed up in system clerical stuff, load averages are going through the roof, it appears to be classic OS thrashing. Given all the httpd instances, it will be interesting to hear whether the OP is doing Web server virtualization stuff or merely getting pounded by outside requests.
