        As far as I know linode uses User Mode Linux for it's VPS's. User  
mode linux runs in userspace so VM's running under this system can be  
affected by the 'bad neighbor' affect a lot easier then say a Xen  
based VPS. So someone else on the same box is probably sucking up the  
resources when you see slow times.

        Either that or you may just be swapping a lot. 360Mb is not a lot for  
a rails app vps and if you are hitting swap it will kill performance  
badly.
