There's a whole range of potential problems. It could be the dreaded lockup bug which you can confirm it isn't by seeing if site shutdown [now] works. If that works in under 2 minutes (there is a grace period) then it's not the lockup bug. You could try site crashnow as well and that should be instant but will generate a dumpfile. After ruling that out, you need to look at the passive port range and make sure you are forwarding/allowing all of it in the router/firewall if you have one. I've seen similar behavior when only part of the port range is forwarded. Things work fine for a while and then you get into the non-forwarded range and things timeout.
