I decided to count how often the system on sa-vm has been getting so busy it kills processes:

Is this a contributor to the bursts of failed DNS lookups?

Yes, it is the root cause of failures. Everything gets so backed up with the system trying to make every last bit of RAM available, that a DNS lookup can get swapped out for minutes, during which it times out. The same goes for everything else on the system; every process is stalled for so long that they time out without having any real run time.
