This is really wrong:

Usually disabling it, NTLM problems are increased .... :-(

Usually similar problems are originated by an high latency in the

This could be more useful, but a look into cache.log to see if there
are any error like
"WARNING: All ntlmauthenticator processes are busy" before change anything.
