You could definitely try to increase the maxConcurrentSessions and maxConcurrentCalls in your service throttling behavior to the standard values of 30 or so and see if that makes the error go away. Server too busy would seem to indicate that more requests have come in than area allowed by your service throttling behavior, and they've been discarded since no service instance became available to service them within the given timeout period.
