My guess is that during the normal operation, the client is continuously busy writing error messages to the log, so busy that it simply does not have time to service the RPC. During benchmarking, there is a lull in the error-writing attempts, and therefore there is time to get a few RPC packets in and out.

Only a guess... hope it is helpful

Currently, I don't have physical access to the host itself. I only have remote access via VPN and BoincView. [...] It's sort of a deadlock since I can't reset the projects (SIMAP has about 118 MB on the disk) without RPC access.

The interesting part is, that RPC seemed to work during the CPU benchmarks but not during normal operation. After the finished benchmarks the connection is lost again. This is possibly a bug in the client.

You could wait for the nect benchmark (5 days? 24.03.2007 10:30:47) and then act FAST during the short RPC access window :-)
