Brad's steps would be a great place to start looking. I work for Intergral - the makers of FusionReactor (http://www.fusion-reactor.com/) - it's an alternative to SeeFusion.
Usually when we see this behaviour it's due to sticky sessions being enabled and the busy sessions are simply hitting the same instance. There's plenty of data the FusionReactor interface and logs can give you about this and we also have a consultancy service which handles this type of problem. As Brad suggests, it would be worth checking your CF & JVM settings are equal on both instances. Are you running on JRun or another server? Are you using session sharing? As this can sometimes cause one server to perform badly. FusionReactor also captures additional metrics which could be of use in this case. Additionally, if this is an intermittent issue, with FusionReactor you could use the AIR dashboard to sit in your system tray to alert you when a problem start to occur. That way you don't have to actively monitor your servers by checking a web-page - it will alert you when the problem starts to occur. Feel free to get in touch on (678) 389 9499 (US) for some advice. Alternatively you can call me direct in our UK office 011 44 207 193 1212.
