Could you upgrade to 1.6.8 and see if that is better. Checksum database
handling was changed in 1.6.5.

I think it is related to checksumming, so you could turn that off if it
is a recurrent and disruptive problem.

At this point you need to run 

 /usr/share/apt-cacher/apt-cacher-cleanup.pl -r

after killing the processes but before restarting to clean locks and
mutexes from the checksum database.
