Answers to Astro messages are sometimes time consuming as it is difficult to find. Astro is a type of ASIC on the 4006.

Generally it could be intermittant component failure, network congestion that forces the CPU usage high (check that), cabling, sup clock failures, or you could even have a power issue.
