I believe this is a function of the length of the config, any changes that need to be made and your VRRP advert interval (and probably ancillary things like disk IO). If a HUP makes keepalived take longer than necessary to re-read and do $stuff, it'll stop sending adverts and you may experience a race failover while the master fiddles with config (and Rome burns). You may (although I hesitate to say this if keepalived is well-used by you) want to switch to ldirectord, since it does in-service config changes (like weights) without a signal. As long, of course, as the config is sane!
