  My guess is that it has to do with server load.  We are building more 
sites using databases, and these sites are receiving an increase in hits?

  All I knew is what was at:

http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql-max-3.23.html
  "Linux Advisory: Several of our users have reported random table 
  corruption with Linux kernel 2.2.14 under heavy load. The table 
  corruptions went away after an upgrade to a newer kernel. It appears 
  that version 2.2.14 of the Linux kernel has a bug in the I/O
  implementation.  Under some rather rare circumstances, the kernel will
  write incorrect data to the disk."
