How about configuring custom logging temporarily, just to be sure you are seeing the logged errors?

I think the delay in posting is not due to server load but due to this 500 error. It’s thinking about something then it fails.

If the script had a syntax error, I would think it would fail more quickly. You can check all your php scripts for syntax errors if you have command line access if you do something like this:

shell# find . -name "*.php" -print| xargs -n1 php -l

(that’s “dash n one” and “php dash el”, lowercase L)

Looks like you’re on CentOS so that should work OK.
