Another issue that I recently fixed was that many of the webserver VM's were being swapped out by Linux when they weren't being actively used, so people visiting the site might randomly hit a slow VM, which would take minute or two to become fast. Over the weekend I eliminated all use of swap by everything in the SMC stack, which has removed this problem.
