Package: libsnmp-multi-perl
Version: 2.1-3
Severity: normal

By default SNMP::Multi passes value (retries+1)*timeout to SNMP::MainLoop.
This is a hard limit to C function snmp_main_loop().
However this time is too short to detect all individual
session timeouts. It should be increased by 10-15 %.
(At least on the host I develop. With two 2 GHz Intel Xeon CPUs)

I don't understand exactly (yet) what is happening but
if I override overall timeout when calling execute()
I get back all hosts on SNMP::Multi::Result list including
the unreachable ones (marked with the appropriate error code).

However with default timeout some of (or all) unreachable hosts are
simply missing from result list but SNMP::Multi::remaining list
is empty.
