Is there a limit on the number of hosts that can polled?

["Smith, Jonathan" <jon.d.smith (at) twcable.com>]

Once I start to get around 2700 hosts hobbit stops updating. Is there a
cause for this in hobbit (memory or host limit)? Top shows my system
with very little utilization of memory or cpu and all hosts go purple
for no updates.  I can get hobbit updating again by commenting out hosts
and restarting it but I still have roughly another fifteen hundred hosts
to enter.
I have been adding the hosts in slowly in groups of less than two
hundred which seems to work better as I was seeing everything go purple
at under two thousand hosts before.
