I was just reading up on this:

http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wp-testers/2009-January/011099.html

Wow, thats alot of processing used to do /%category%/%postname%/ (what I 
like best).  I would think with all of the SQL kings available there would 
make a procedure/function that will make a single stored information of all 
possible rewrites..

As for your 404's are they only happening once in awhile or is it constant? 
.. cause that's odd that it would only be intermittant
