I find it very unlikely, but you didn't gave us necessary data (say, how
much free space was on the disks, etc.). The best way to pinpoint the
issue would be to run some profiler (which we have repeatedly asked you
to do), but now that the issue disappeared we can only guess.

Please monitor the system and if it happens again run perf or other
profiler so that we know where the time is spent.
