It's running on rocket. I now think it's dying during a specific ajax call, but only some of the time and/or shortly after its called (there's usually a page load after it) and/or when it's excessively busy. Not sure if siege can automate the button clicks that trigger the ajax calls but I might be able to do something with selenium...
