APN connection timeout

[MaxShv]

We are getting the following issue in production. Is it possible to update to the newer version of node-apn? It seems like it was fixed in version 1.7.2 (https://github.com/argon/node-apn/issues/217).

Same problem here on production. If I reboot servers and send the same notification, it succeeds.

What do you think is the cause? Because mine works again, I can't believe it's an out of date certificate. I'm suspecting it's a volume problem (I('m sending to thousands of named devices). Would be great to have your thoughts on the matter, so a workaround can be created.

Make sure the needed ports are open on the network

Hi! Yep, ports are open.

In my case I was pushing tens of thousands of notifications via a single call to Push.send({query:{}}). That seemed to have fouled something up.

I've worked around it by putting far fewer pushes through each Push.send call and using sendInterval and sendBatchSize to control push speed. Works well now!

ah gotcha @Alveoli - It might be helpful for others if we could improve docs on that
