Btw, are you monitoring the ZK server jvms? Please take a look at

http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/zookeeperAdmin.html#sc_zkCommands

It would be interesting if you could run commmands such as "stat" 
against your currently running cluster. In particular I'd be interested 
to know what you see for latency and "node count" in the stat response. 
Run this command against each of your servers in the ensemble. For 
example high "max latency" might indicate that something (usually 
swap/gc) is causing the server to respond slowly in some cases.
