FWIW, I have a ~3Mbps connection and I never have dropouts or pauses (on the high quality stream). I'm using the default buffer setting and 30 seconds for the timeout. One thing you could do is check to see if the same problem happens using the "official" Sirius player, to see if it's a connection problem or a slimserver problem. Also, have you checked slimserver's memory usage? It may be just me, but lately I've seen it use up almost all my 1GB of RAM and most of the swap file. Restarting slimserver fixes it (at least for while...)
