Using SA 2.55

I have been seeing periodic timeouts over the last two weeks. I thought
it was just me. I just enabled timelog again and below are the Razor2
results:

(Delta: 9.000s)
(Delta: 9.000s)
(Delta: 2.000s)
(Delta: 7.000s)
(Delta: 4.000s)
(Delta: 11.000s)
(Delta: 4.000s)
(Delta: 3.000s)
(Delta: 2.000s)
(Delta: 5.000s)
(Delta: 11.000s)
(Delta: 2.000s)
(Delta: 2.000s)
(Delta: 2.000s)
(Delta: 2.000s)

The normal scantime is around 2-3 seconds. I have had delta times
exceed 20 seconds and an extreme of 60 seconds. A typical delta in
double-digit seconds is around 10-13 seconds. Sometimes these high scan
times can last a few hours and there is not a relationship with the time
of day.
