Do you notice any difference if you set MessageTimeout to something really high, like 300 or so? Do you get any error messages in your /var/log/slurm/slurmctld.log? Have you tried the suggestion of lowering the debug level? In your slurm.conf you have SlurmctldDebug=7 wich will result in lots of debug messages in slurmctld.log wich might slow the slurmctld down.
