Albert,
Do this: https://cloudblog.switch.ch/2017/08/28/starting-1000-instances-on-switchengines/
The problem will go away. I'm of the opinion that daemon mode for rootwrap should be the default since the performance improvement is an order of magnitude, but privsep may obviate that concern once its fully implemented.
Either way, that should solve your problem.

I tried reducing various config values in dev but am not able to duplicate the issue. The neutron servers don’t appear to be overloaded during the failure.
