Hi Thomas,

Are you using the caching module (CachingHttpClient)? If so, there are
certain cases where the cache is required to return 504 responses if
it can't talk to the origin. Since you're making a large number of
concurrent requests, it's possible the origin is being overloaded.
Another question is whether there is a proxy (e.g. Squid/Varnish)
between your client and origin--if so, it could be the source of the
504s for the same reason.

Can you post a wire log showing some of the successful and
unsuccessful responses?
