Well, it depends on the reason for the timeouts.  If the packet is
getting lost along the way due to network issues, it would never hit the
server, and you wouldn't have any logs of it.

You could use filters on tcpdump (tcpdump -tt host x.y.z.a && port
53)and setup a script on a remote host to send a stream of queries.  You
don't necessarily have to capture all traffic to troubleshoot the
problem.  Make sure your servers are time sync'd properly so you can
correlate the logs.

Otherwise, if the issue is happening after the packet reaches the
server, then I'd bump up the debug level and turn on a bunch of logging
and make sure ntp is working fine and start watching logs while
generating a bunch of traffic from a test box.

Cheers,

Todd.
