Details

During some of my most recent testing of slaveapi I noticed that dns requests seem to time out if there are too many happening at once. I suspect this is related to https://github.com/surfly/gevent/issues/2. Not sure exactly what to do about it yet, but I'm thinking that replacing in-Python DNS resolution with calling out to a subprocess would be good -- we'd know for sure that it's working asynchronously and we could rip out the workaround of keeping all the files open.
Fixing bug 914796 might help with this. The fact that subprocess block may be causing the dns requests to time out.
I'm 99% sure this is fixed bug 914796.
