You are probably experiencing heavy cpu loads around 4 am, due to logs
rotating. Your system wouldn't crash at 4 am all the time, due to fans. They
are more likely to lock up in the day time. I would suspect a job running
around that time.
We get a memory dangerously low on 2 of our Raqs every day. The email comes
in between 4am and 5 am. Our log rotation is causing that.
