There are some timeout issues you can see with large clusters on Torque - check the Torque web site for explanations and instructions on what to do about it. However, that doesn't appear to be the problem here.
If our daemon doesn't report back, it is typically due to one or more of the following reasons: 1. it couldn't start because it didn't find the required libraries. 2. it couldn't report back because it hit a firewall 3. it couldn't report back because it didn't find a network that would get it back to mpirun >From your other note, it sounds like #3 might be the problem here.

If you randomly got some of those nodes in your allocation, that might explain why your jobs sometimes work and sometimes don't.
