Hi,

Puppetmasterd uses the webrick web server which is meant really for development 
only. Once you get over a number of nodes you see these issue. Check the 
puppetlabs docs on scaling for your options. 

The other issue you are seeing is due to caching. I know this was a recently 
looked into but I can't remember if it was addressed and in which version (most 
likely 2.7.x). You can query the project page for current tickets.

Cheers,
Den
