I have a development web server set up for httpd, mysql5 and php5 that has all of a sudden started randomly pausing. After some testing (removing PHP modules, httpd conf settings, etc) it seems that simply loading PHP is what is causing the issue. If I remove it from httpd then serving static HTML is fine. With PHP enabled I get issues with slow rendering of PHP content, slow CLI scripts (another sign it is just PHP itself), and when I do a 'apachectl stop' the box will hang for up to 60 seconds before responding again. I updated to the newest 4.3-stable last week to see if that would help but to no avail.
I have loaded everything from Packages and there is nothing from Ports or hand compiled on the box. My 4.1-stable box has not encountered any issues such as this though it is slated to be updated to 4.3 as soon as some new hardware comes in. Any other info that is needed, just let me know.
