Thanks all for the feedback,
Perhaps I'll look into making a set of abstractions for such thing, parsing top output in PD (as not to depend on pyx) does not seem all that fun though.
I think I found the problem, and will know in 6 days.
I has reinstalled the kernel and forgot to add the noapm acpi=off kernel flags to grub. Without these linux nvidia drivers are not stable. I think that is the culprit as it has caused freezes in the past (and I did notice that it was X that froze, not PD, since I was unable to kill X)
FYI I only do installations in -nogui. ;)
In case anyone is interested, and was not at pd-conv here is some info on the project:

if you have continual output to the Pd console, the symptoms are similar to a memory leak as the console buffer is never emptied. This has bitten me before with crashes on long-term installations. Start pd with -stderr so the output goes to the terminal and see if it still crashes?

Hey all,
Anyhow have an abstraction laying around that gives the current CPU load? I'm trying to track down a freeze in my long term installation, and so far I have no indication of why it froze. Perhaps an ever increasing CPU load could give me a suspect...
Thanks, B. Bogart
