Hi Jeff,

At the risk of this looking like a "when all you have is a hammer,
everything looks like a nail" type response, whenever I've seen random
failures like this, it's because the puppetmaster can't cope with the load
being driven to it.  Are you running your puppetmaster behind a web server
such as Apache/Passenger or nginx/Passenger?  If not, and dependent on the
number of clients and their runinterval, you may be hitting a bottleneck
caused by Puppet's internal webserver's (Webrick's) single-threaded nature.

Regards,

Matt.
