If it is metadata agent load related:
Are you caching the metadata info? (configure memcached_servers in nova.conf)
We noticed a huge benefit on the metadata agent performance.
Within our cloud the biggest load is created from facter (puppet) which will query the metadata agent.
This adds up to quite a lot of requests to the metadata agent quickly.
Adding caching significantly decreases the load on all systems.
(Without caching we have a VERY high nova-conductor load)
