Did this event just start happening? How many DC do you have in the site where Exchange is hosted? Basically it is stating that it cannot keep up to the queries that users are requesting. I would check to see what your DC are doing and make sure that they have available resources as well (CPU and memory). You should also check and make sure the you network latency is also good.
Checking DC replication also wouldn't hurt. Probably not a good idea to just let this go. Are your clients complaining?

A simple ping can show the network latency. You can also use pathping as well.
I personally think it is to do with the resources on the DC's

you get 25ms on the same LAN? That seems high.
Or is this over a MPLS or IPSec VPN?
What about the resources on the DC's?

On your DC change the following registry key.
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControl
Change 15 Field Engineering to a Value of "5"
Once this is set look in the Directory Services log for event ID 1644.
If this Event ID shows up install HOTFIX http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2862304 on all DCs that Exchange uses.
LDAP Read and Search times should be under 15 with spikes not higher than 50.
To check for high LDAP times, run ExPerfWiz for about an hour or two and then open up the data and look at MSExchange ADAccess Domain Controllers and then LDAP Read Time and LDAP Search Time.

You didn't say what version of Windows you are running for your Domain Controllers. The above applies to 2008 R2 SP1 and above. If you are using 2003 you need to upgrade your DCs and apply the above hotfix.
