Apache fails to serve request or pauses for extended period of time

Question

At seeming random intervals, my page requests will timeout. It happens the most to me when I am working on either a Drupal 7 project or a CodeIgniter project.

Chrome gives me the error Error 7 (net::ERR_TIMED_OUT): The operation timed out. and suggests that I refresh the page (very helpful!).

I am using SSL on the CI project but I believe I have pretty well ruled out the possibility that it is the issue as I have double checked my configuration and I have the same problem on the D7 project which does not use SSL.

Software stack:

Apache 2.2.19 downloaded from ApacheLounge. (VC9)
PHP 5.3.6 (VC9)

Resarting Apache doesn't seem to help the situation and I am at a loss to know what to try next. Any and all suggestions and help will be greatly appreciated.

Do you see the requests that are timing out anywhere in the apache log files? — Kyle Brandt, Jul 08 '11 at 14:22
After carefully monitoring this issue for a while, It seems likely that this is a network issue of some sort. Any suggestions how to debug and what to try next? — Icode4food, Jul 18 '11 at 17:12

If there's nothing in your log files, and you've got debug logging turned on, then the problem is that the requests aren't getting to Apache. Check your network.

I set `LogLevel debug` Is that all? – Icode4food Jul 09 '11 at 01:25
It must be a network issue, nothing is hitting the log. – Icode4food Jul 18 '11 at 12:56
