Crazy idea: has anyone ever used an Ipad (pro) as an ad-hoc display for a headless server? Since I only require a display once per year for maintenance via CLI, it would be an elegant solution if I could just plug in the Ipad via an VGA adapter.

While you will probably need a monitor connected but not powered on (or a video dummy plug), you could install the teamviewer-host plugin and use the teamviewer app on the ipad to do exactly this.

Why not use a Terminal App to connect via ssh to your server.
The app i use is called "A-Shell": https://apps.apple.com/us/app/a-shell/id1473805438

So I was thinking instead I could plug in an Ipad via VGA if that works.
Any experience?
You want ipmi/ilo/out of band management. This is a very common server feature. I don't know of anything that could connect an ipad to vga. I have seen projects that use an rpi to create ipmi for a server that doesn't have it. But this seems like overkill for something that shouldn't be happening (stuck boot process).

What are the reasons for overclocking your RPi4?
-
performance improvement of 25%
Is that really necessary?

Yikes.

Sounds like you need better cooling on the RPi if you are going to overclock.
