   I got a HTTP 500 Error this morning visiting my blog, and my hoster told me, the problem is wordpress calling an external page and not getting any response. It then exceeded the limit of simultaneous running processes and the web server shut down :(
   The request went to http://199.59.148.11/, which is twitter.com, so Twitter Widget Pro must have caused the error – despite having the timeout set to 2 seconds.
   It fits with the problems twitter is reporting today.

   So maybe even when the set timeout kicks in, the request process continues running on the server?

   Twitter Widget Pro uses the WordPress HTTP class for all transport, so if it was causing this kind of problem you'd be getting the same thing any time one of the WordPress servers was out of reach.

   Are you on a dedicated server? If so, with what host?
