The next thing to check is your network -- ensure that it is actually
sending messages in a timely fashion, and not falling back to re-try
sending on timeouts and whatnot. This is definitely not my forte/
area -- others on this list may be able to chime in better than I.
Some network switches are known to handle congestion poorly, for
example, causing delays, etc.
