I have a substantial number of Windows hosts running puppet 3.1.1 with the 
following in their puppet.conf:

runinterval = 1800
> splay = true
> splaylimit = 900


However in checking puppet logs, I'm finding that these hosts are dialing 
in at 30 minute intervals +/- 5-10 seconds.  Can someone provide me an 
example puppet.conf that is properly implementing the splay feature on a 
similar environment (windows, Puppet 3.1.1)?

Thanks in advance.  I've searched quite a bit on this and not found 
anything that completely explains how to make use of splay to ensure agents 
don't all dial in at the same time.  I sometimes launch 20+ systems at a 
time, and staggering the launch is not an option -- I need to figure out 
how to get Puppet to vary the dial in.  When 100 hosts all dial in at the 
same time, it absolutely crushes the masters.
