Twenty Questions

Further to salva's reply, try experimenting separately with number of nodes, and length of timeout. You may discover there is a relationship. If there is any variation, try plotting number of nodes and length of timeout to get a successful run.

Try looking for problem nodes, by splitting the list into halves, or removing 5 or 10 different nodes each time. You may discover that there are one or two specific nodes that get hung up, but only with a large number of nodes (so it could be network traffic congestion, and poor recovery to/from certain nodes).

What happens to process memory when node count goes up? (Perhaps there's a memory leak/retention you aren't expecting.)

What happens if you run this from different host nodes? Especially, hosts not on the same end router as the original host?

Do you have a different large pool of target nodes, other than the original? How does it perform compared to the original?

Is there anything else you can vary?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
