We used to have IBM Netfinity until two months ago switched to the lighter, smaller Dell ones - you know how big and heavy those IBM ones are. Well, never had any such issue with IBM then.

Do you have some pages with super long running times. Perhaps extra long queries? These tie up threads. Check the CF serverlog for warnings about long running pages.
