Starting from 3.0.9 we have seen some horrendous performance problems (CPU pegging and effectively hanging the application for upwards of a minute) even on modern hardware with minimal workloads.  We were able to work around them by pre-starting multiple server processes (the perl process is actually what seems to hang), and performance has been pretty good since then.

Was the perl process waiting on anything? Was there a blocking database
query? Did you attempt any sort of debugging of the actual problem?
