Check server load/memory usage/... at time when it hanged.
Check syslog, gerrit error_log, gerrit sshd_log, access log, etc. to see if you can find something that stands out during the 2 minutes it hanged.
Those should hopefully give you some clue.
And like Matthias said, check for any job(s) started at that times (gc, ...) on the server.
