My understanding is that there is potential for a middleman attack when actually archiving a page. That was the source-less claim anyway. I still use it at times, its not like theres malware coming out of the site, its more a privacy issue.
If it's a 504 it's just a timeout error. I haven't experienced any pages missing or issues myself, everything loads fine here. Unlike archive.org it's run by a single person so if there's heavy traffic I'd cut him a little slack, he's doing his best :)
Should you notice particular pages missing however do post about it as that would be important.

Could you provide some examples that make you think this?

I was getting a 504 when trying to access anything on archive.is, it could be due to traffic but I doubt it.
