Are you using the built-in webrick server that comes with Puppet or
have you switched to either Mongrel or Passenger? If you're using the
built-in server, you may be hitting the single threaded nature of that
server, i.e. it can only respond to one request at a time. So, if more
than one puppet client connects at the same time, you'll see some of
them throw this (and other similar) errors as their requests time out.

If you have a low number of clients (<100), you should be able to get
away with using the --splay command-line parameter (or splay=true in
puppet.conf) to spread the load out on the client side. If you have
more clients, you should look at switching to Mongrel or Passenger
instead.

Hope that helps,
Avi
