This will probably be a difficult problem to help me resolve since I hardly understand what is causing it, but I'll do my best to explain. I apologize if this has been asked before, but I searched as much as possible and could not find a similar issue reported.
I run a Feed the Beast Ultimate 1.0.1 server. I do not use 1.0.2 or 1.1.0 because they are not recommended yet. I am also using MCPC Plus to run some bukkit plugins on the server. I am using MCPC Plus Legacy build 38.
So I will now attempt to explain the situation: Every so often, the server will become unresponsive for at least 10 seconds and End of Stream everybody (Well, the console says everybody end of streamed). When this happens, the CPU just goes to 1% - 5% and stays there for the whole 10 seconds. The console says nothing about the event except that all the players disconnected because of being End of Streamed. Right before the end of streaming happens, everything looks fine. The CPU and RAM are at average levels and are not being overloaded. It catches everybody by surprise. I try to ask everybody to tell me what they were doing right before it happened, but I only heard responses like, "Just building my base," or, "Opening my furnace."
Are there any known problems with the mods or MCPC Plus that causes this? Could it possibly be a plugin error (list of plugins at the bottom of this post)? Could opening some sort of GUI be causing it?
I am using a dedicated server and I contacted the host about this a while ago, but was told that the server was running perfectly fine from their end, no hardware issues or anything. One of them even monitored the server for a day and even when the server was end of streaming everybody, everything appeared normal from their end.
This is some of the server information that I just copied out of a crash log.

AABB Pool Size: 0 (0 bytes; 0 MB) allocated, 0 (0 bytes; 0 MB) used
Suspicious classes: FML and Forge are installed

List of Bukkit Plugins: AutoMessage, Buycraft, Essentials, EssentialsAntiBuild, EssentialsChat, EssentialsGeoIP, EssentialsGroupBridge, EssentialsGroupManager, EssentialsProtect, EssentialsSpawn, GriefPrevention, LogBlock, MCMA_compat, Multiverse-Core, Multiverse-Inventories, Multiverse-NetherPortals, Multiverse-Portals, Multiverse-SignPortals, PluginControl, PluginController, PrivateWarp, PublicWarp, Skript, TekkitCustomizer, Vault, WorldEdit, WorldGuard.
Other Information: No mods are disabled on my server. Only parts of mods are. Some of the things that are disabled on my server are Mystcraft Ages, Xycraft Tanks, and all chunk loaders except the ChickenChunks one.
I have heard about the mod TickThreading and am tempted to use it, but don't because it simply isn't stable enough to put on my server.

ermSize=512M or something else? I'm not too familiar with Java flags. The reason I put the MaxPermSize parameter on my server in the first place was because I kept crashing from the Permgen memory running out.
