Check latency is probably your core symptom.  This almost always means
that your service checks are being delayed because the system is
spending too long on host checks.  I recommend using the check_fping
plugin for host checks if you aren't already.  Here's how I use it to
monitor 575 hosts and 2259 services (very similar size to you.)

define command{
        command_name    check-host-alive
        command_line    $USER1$/check_fping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -n 1 -c 5000.0,100%
        }

define host{
        name    generic-host
        check_command    check-host-alive
        max_check_attempts    3
        }
