Try commenting out the dlv-anchor-file directive. We had a similar situation about a month ago, where at random times our unbound servers would start dropping queries. Running "unbound-control stats_noreset | grep total.requestlist" at the time showed lots of exceeded requests. We tried increasing various options (num-threads, num-queries-per-thread etc), but the problem kept coming back randomly. At some point, we started recording the output of "unbound-control dump_requestlist" every minute, and this revealed that when queries were being dropped, there was a huge delay getting answers from authoritative NSs of dlv.isc.org. Maybe RRL on their side? Maybe network trouble in the path between us that we were not aware of? We never found out, but we turned off dlv and didn't have a problem since then.
