I do not show that in any of my logs. If I have it set to crit, nothing ever shows in the log except when I start the process. The reason I don't think its PHP is because the delay happens when I refresh a standard HTML page.

I'm completely lost as to what's going on. If I'm viewing top then nginx and php-cgi disappears from the list, but that's because its cpu/ram usage goes down. If I view the running processes from within my control panel (WHM), nginx and php-cgi never actually goes away. So its almost like the requests are being held up somewhere for 5-10 seconds and nginx resources goes down because its not actually getting the requests. Any idea if this is possible and what the cause would be?
