Would it be possible to include the parts of the error log generated just around the time when the system beomes unresponsive?

What extensions do you have installed?

Overall, it sounds like something is consuming a lot of memory (a memory leak somewhere). This could be caused by bugs in PHP/Apache or MediaWiki. Long, large SQL queries could also be the problem. It could also be the jobqueue running more and more jobs. It could be a problem with running on Win32.

So, without more information, it is hard to determine what the problem is or if upgrading will solve it. 1.20.x is no longer supported, though, so an upgrade wouldn't hurt.

You might also try setting up Linux in VirtualBox or VMWare and seeing if it still has the same problem.
