Evening!
Analysing why I get this random long request intermittently on the IIS on my dedicated server. I've no idea what's happening as nothing has appeared in any logs. Just a complete freeze - no CPU, mem OK, no event logs, no SQL deadlocks, not an AppPool recycle, no brute force attacks occurring at the same time. Authenticated site - Kerberos Win 2k8. All subsequent requests freeze, then requests eventually served with 10 secs to a minute delay then afterwards site very fast again for ages. Very odd and way out of my expertise.
