Hi,

I running xen virtual machine with heartbeat on. It prompt this
Gmain_timeout_dispatch every 2 or 5 minutes. Sometime it kill off my NTP
service. 

The host is not busy as nothing is running currently. Is there any other
ways to optimize heartbeat to prevent this from happening?

This occurs, as the messages hint, typically when the system load
is high and the program can't invoke all asynchronous tasks within
the optimal timeframe. That doesn't mean that this functions are
not run, just that they are invoked a bit later than they should
have. It may also sometimes happen on virtual machines (such as
xen, kvm, or vmware) if the host is too busy.

Thanks,

Dejan
