This is very difficult to analyze without more information...

Does the cpu load jumped suddenly ?

When it happens, stop the gbx process, and attach it to gdb to see what it 
does.

A better possibility is adding a log system in your program to know exactly 
which line it runs and when. This way, you will be able to give me clues to 
know what happened exactly.
