I think this has been raised previously.

Yeah, errors at the NGINX layer need to be handled a bit differently, and are technically not part of this project. I'm planning to support the website using a set of generated static pages (see https://github.com/ukwa/ukwa-site for the idea), but for now I've just extended the NGINX timeout to 300s instead of 60s to cope when the system slows down.

One thing worth checking is the size of the HTTP client pool that UKWA-UI is using. If it's quite small, we might end up with users stuck waiting for a spot in the client pool.
