Can you put it on an illumOS based system temporarily and get DTracing?
At the very least this would tell you if its infrastructure or application.

Spin up a Joyent SmartOS or do a local install of OpenIndiana. 
Then install your app 

This d script will show you when garbage collection is starting and how 
long it takes. 


node*:::gc-start
{
    self->ts = timestamp;
}
    
node*:::gc-done
{
    printf("Garbage Collection - [%Y] - %d",
              walltimestamp, 
              timestamp - self->ts);
              self->ts = 0
}
