kbuck,
If you want people to help you need to supply more information.
Is this an issue with some of your db's or is it happening on all of your db's?
What OS are you running?
Do you have enough physical resources?
Is your network bottle-necked?
Does this happen 24x7 or just at certin times of the day?
I could go on, but I hope you get the point.
