The reason I am asking this is because I also suspect something in the
recent versions of liquidsoap.
One thing you can do to monitor the issue is to use the logfile
parameter of input.harbor. This creates a file which contains the
length of the input buffer over time which can be plotted, in order to
get an idea of what's going on..

Also, you should check the logs for messages of the type:
  "No network activity for 1 second(s)."
If those messages happen a lot and the graph of the input buffer goes
to zero, then the problem is on the networking side..
