It happens...

Most probable reason is some application is trying to grab some high amount of memory. So, look for some strange memory-related messages from logs.

Another reason could be a stateful firewall inside a VPS -- if there are too many connections, netfilter can allocate quite a big amounts of kernel memory. Are there a lot of records in /proc/net/ip_conntrack file inside a VPS? Does it help to run a VPS without any iptables rules (you can actually clone a VPS and run its clone without iptables to check)?
