I'd definitely agree with this, and disabled Pyzor (I have DCC and
Razor2, so you could
argue I'm well into overkill territory) earlier this week, as a result
of the consistent
'TimeOutError' responses from a ping.

One thing I've definitely seen (albeit only once) is when doing a
'discover' is the
client being unable to reach the Sourceforge site in a timely fashion
to get some
output to fill the 'servers' file. This resulted in a mangled 'servers'
file which naturally
make the client throw a wobbly every time. For this reason now I keep a
copy of the
servers file and just do a diff/md5sum from time to time to see if it's
changed.
