You are using Asterisk 1.2.x? I have seen this many, many times. Sometimes the CLI becomes unresponsive, sometimes queues crap out or stops delivering calls to agents, sometimes it just takes a bit and then becomes responsive again. The rule of thumb is don't reload queues when there are people in queue, at least that seems to eliminate the problems I have seen. Makes sense too. Not sure if it is fixed in 1.4.
