I remember having similar issues once before. If you have a client server setup rather than a stand alone, Mysql communication can become quite heavy if there is not a DNS listing for server, shared host as I recall helps any issues, also if your audio storage is via NFS make sure your NFS config has enough kernel threads for the traffic expected, lots of times, as your Rivendell system grows, mine has 5 stations accessing one server, network design can cause problems that you end up trying to blame on Rivendell, make sure everything is set up to handle the traffic your system needs, especially mysql and NFS. I know this is a rather general reply to your problem but many times I have found networking bottlenecks or retransmissions of data because of bottlenecks to be the ultimate cause of problems, almost never has it ever been Rivendell, usually other settings related to network communication.
