This has been a continuing problem.  The vcs server periodically
experiences a high load average greater than 20.  When it is in that
high load average state it is too slow responding to the frontend web
server and times out.  When the backend vcs times out then the
frontend web server emits the message you saw.

Presently there are various conjectures about the root cause of the
problem.  But it hasn't been solved.
