Locust master + 130 locust workers, all tests suddenly fail #13
Description
I have a locust setup running on a 3 minion cluster. While watching the cpu usage of the minions and running 1300 users simulated and hatch rate 10 on 130 workers, suddenly all tests stop working and record only failure.

I expected that something went wrong on the machines, but all workers are running and locust master us accessible without any issue:

I presumed that the network has some issues so I pinged the TARGET_HOST=http://workload-simulation-webapp.appspot.com, the workers can ping the host
