should I start to look for my bottleneck?

You can install awstats or something similar which will analyse your Apache logs to give you better idea of your application workload. At least you could get an idea of whether your traffic is coming in bursts during the day.

Also, what does 'top' tell you about which processes are using the CPU? Is the load distributed evenly across all instances? Is it the spider or the main application which generates the load?

Does 'vm_stat' show lots of paging from memory onto disk?
