Just a SWAG: Maybe the traffic slows down so much that the database (if there is one) is timing out connections and dumping stuff from its cache, so that when people do hit it, the db has to create a new connection and read lots of stuff from disk, which was in RAM cache during the week?

  This seems likely as we have seen some problems with DB connections. I am not 
sure how to keep the DB connections alive when there is no traffic on the 
website.
What we ended up doing was extending the connection timeout setting in the database so that it would keep it alive over a weekend. Of course, this will use a few more resources on the DB server, but that's not likely to be limiting. I don't know what you could do about the cold cache issue, though; maybe a cron job to periodically run some typical queries against the database? Actually, that would take care of the connection timeout issues as well.
