I did a bit of investigating on the server but couldn't determine what may have caused the issue. I didn't see any excessive bandwidth, CPU or memory usage in the logs for approx 3pm or any indication of a DoS. No traffic spikes as well.

It's possible that we just happened to have a bunch of simultaneous site-wide searches which slowed things down. I doubt that was the issue, though.

If it happens again look down to the bottom of your browser window in the status area and see if there's a domain that appears stuck and not loading. That might give a bit more detail of what's going on.

Hopefully it's not a server hardware issue, which might be another possibility.

How long was the slow down going on for?
