A couple things were happening here...

zeus1 suffered a cpu fan failure and was shutdown by external 
hardware that rebooted it into a different kernel (which ended
up resolving the 64-bit sendfile issue (older kernel)

load average on zeus1 was well over 150 with the older kernel--
and a bit of investigation went into whether or not the kernel
was the cause, but in the process of investigation, a third problem 
was discovered...

Logwatch left 39GB of turds in /tmp filling up the entire root
filesystem causing gitweb to fail because it had nowhere to
write temp files (also why the bandwidth graph wasn't showing
up as well for zeus1).

The root filesystem is only 50GB on that machine while /var/log
is hundreds of gigabytes...

/tmp was cleared out, the system is now on a more stable kernel
that should resolve the 64-bit sendfile issues, and the system
load appears to now be at a reasonable level...

We will be updating the kernel on the other machine after the
current one proves stable with 64-bit sendfile support.

That should fix the problem with apache not being able to
serve DVD images...
