I remember an older thread about this, but i couldnt find it. This forum has hickups, it seems to be down again and again for a few minutes. Is something broken? I doubt it's the load, because it is not slow normally.

Yes, sadly neither Jannis nor I have found out the cause of this. This server runs on nginx with a Socket-PHP CGI process. Sometimes the PHP CGI process is non responsive; sometimes it works again after a few seconds or minutes, but sometimes the process completely zombifies and needs either a server restart, or a forced kill of the PID of the CGI.
Sadly, I don't know much about CGI and NGinx operated PHP, and the logfiles do not seem conclusive.
