Hello,
First: thanks Tim for the answer, I really appreciate it !!! You make the day of someone
in the world :-)
Here are some modifications I have done to my LocalSettings.php:
Tim suggests:
$wgCacheDirectory = "$IP/cache/mediawiki001"; (was already set)
$wgMsgCacheExpiry = 365*86400; (was at 86400 from DefaultSettings.php)
Right after this modification, I didn't had any other 408 errors for the rest of the
day...
BUT, I went to Special:ListFiles and clicked on a picture and it took a very long time
before the image was displayed (let's say near a minute)... doesn't make sens...
It was long just if I clicked on a pict listed in Special:ListFiles...
I have continue my search on the net and found this:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Upload_slow
So I tried to disable InstantCommons (I don't need it anyway) and BINGO ! after a day,
all is fast:
# InstantCommons allows wiki to use images from
http://commons.wikimedia.org
$wgUseInstantCommons = false;
$wgAllowExternalImages = false;
#$wgAllowExternalImageFrom = array();
I cannot understand why suddently it runned slowly, but it seems that these changes solved
the issue...
Again: thanks !!!
Cheers !

It sounds like a recache of the LocalisationCache, or MessageCache or both. Try setting
$wgMsgCacheExpiry = 365*86400, and set $wgCacheDirectory to the path of a fast local (i.e.
not NFS) writable directory.
