Exchange Event log EventID 906 (Source ESE)

Over the last month I keep getting the following event log -

Source - ESE
ID - 906

Information Store (7220) A significant portion of the database buffer cache has been written out to the system paging file.  This may result in severe performance degradation.
See help link for complete details of possible causes.
Resident cache has fallen by 73349 buffers (or 99%) in the last 86649 seconds.
Current Total Percent Resident: 0% (115 of 152228 buffers)

The event keeps happening around 17:30

Can someone help?

I would begin by restaring the server and then checking the logs. Check the queue's to see if there is any oversize mail that can't be sent. Check online defragmentation to make sure it runs properly.

If possible, run a hardware test on the server. Could be a chip going bad.
The server has recently been rebooted and has not resolved the issue. There is nothing in the queue at this moment.


The Online Defrag is completing successfully...

Faulty chip... I was thinking the same thing but I'm having the same issue on a VM.
Is the VM on the same box?
They are completely different boxes.
One is a VM and the other is physical in separate domains/area of the country (Nothing to do with each other)
