What we've seen in the past is that a server sends down a "modified" time for the feed of, say, "Mar 5, 12:00" ... then when we later submit that as part of the "If-Modified-Since" request, the server returns "Nope, not modified". That situation can persist for days because we'll *always* use that modified time of "Mar 5, 12:00" until we hear differently from the server.
Here's a good test to see if this might be the case. The next time you notice this happening and the feed is more than 30 minutes behind, go to the "Troubleshootize" tab for your feed and hit the "Resync" link. That will cause us to request your feed without the "If-Modified-Since" part. If your feed then shows up fine, that's usually an indication that there's something goofy going on with how the server is returning dates.
