While I can't really speak to the more general problem (I experience  
it too), I did find the 'Retain status file over a reload' patch at http://altinity.blogs.com/dotorg/2007/09/nagios-patch-da.html 
  to be extremely helpful for this particular symptom. Reloads are  
completely transparent to GUI users now.

Same here (geographic map of outages, currently in testing). Haven't  
been bothered enough to do anything about it during that 3-4 minute  
window.

I'm interested in tips as well.
