I'm getting a bit out of my depth here.  

AFAICT the Virgin station is being handled by the SB3. However, the
metadata (i.e. song & programme info) is still being processed by
slimserver so slimserver still has to read the Virgin stream and when
you do a browse, this reading of this stream is affected and then
slimserver decides to restart the stream to SB3 even though the SB3 is
probably decoding OK. 

Since this may explain why both BBC and Virgin have problems even
though the decoding is different, your original guess at the problem
seems right - the database activity is delaying slimserver from reading
data from the internet.

In which case 6.5 with splitscanner and MySQL  should help  - however
some builds of 6.5 are a bit flaky and  you might find it too buggy. 
You can always try and if you don't like it - revert.  Copy your prefs
file before installing 6.5, this will make reversion easier.
