Hi Alex,

your assumption is right, that's the root cause for the random timeouts.

Unfortunately, it is hard to provide a positive proof, since for me the effect
went away when I added some logging in between.

My patch made it disappear, but of course what Felix suggests and you already
implemented is the better approach. I'll take your commit instead and test it.
