I thought this was happening well before the configured timeout but now I'm not so sure, maybe the timeouts are actually working okay and it just seems instant. If the timeouts are in fact working correctly then it's keeping the CPU at 100% for over 30 seconds to the exclusion of any monitoring checks (or maybe locking the cib so the checks can't run?)

You already did some tuning like increasing batch-limit in your cluster
properties and increased corosync timings? Hard to say more without
getting more information ... if your configuration details are too
sensitive to post on a public mailing-list you can of course hire
someone and give that information under NDA ....
