[Xymon] Xymon 4.3.2 http flapping with SSL error

Hi All,

I seem to have a bit of a problem with a large amount of devices
reporting http flapping.  I am monitoring in hosts.cfg
https://[ip_address]:444.  The SSL column always remains green, but
the http column flaps with the status message:

https://[ip_address]:444/ - SSL error

Seconds:     5.08

Is there anyway the time that the http test awaits a response for can
be increased, or is there any other way to prevent the flapping/red
status?  I have 90 such devices that consume a lot of RAM and the CPU
regularly goes up to 90%+ (I collect SNMP stats via devmon so the
flapping here can be controlled with thresholds).  I presume this is
why the http response can be slow, though it would normally return in
8s.  Hence the question, can the http reponse time to Xymon be
increased?

Cheers,
Phil
