+1 I think we in the #openstack-performance channel really need to
investigate this, because it really worries me personally from hearing
many many rumors about how the remote conductor falls over. Please join
there and we can try to work through a plan to figure out what to do
about this situation. It would be great if the nova people also joined
there (because in the end, likely something in nova will need to be
fixed/changed/something else to resolve what appears to be a problem for
many operators).
