Just a quick followup on this message. I think Nick's theory on DNS was right. I talked to my ISP provider, and they do a DNS lookup in the switch for every web request. So, even though the server and client weren't doing DNS lookups, the intermediate network was. And the symptoms of the problem were certainly reminiscent of sporadic DNS failures. We've reconfigured the DNS for the server and the problem hasn't reoccurred - I'm hoping this takes care of it. A belated thanks, Nick! for the help.
