Something that I noticed when I was updating several systems at my lab at once
was that xinetd suspended the ftp service because of high load average. I
increased the xinetd max_load option to 3.5 hoping to prevent future disables.

Keep in mind that this was local network traffic, and I am able to build the
full database in about 1 minute so you can imagine the amount of work that
in.ftpd was doing. After increasing the max_load, this did not happen again
(that I observed).

It is possible that enough members of the community were banging away on that
system when you were doing the update caused a server suspension. When was
this?
