Tasks hang when running multiple ae-render on a single machine

Hi,
We experience an issue when running multiple (8) ae-render processes in parallel on a render machine.
Some tasks hang and do not respond.

It leads to overall very long rendering (job) time or the whole job hangs.
I have tried to configure
"af_task_progress_change_timeout" and "af_task_update_timeout" in order to reduce the timeout but it still happends.

In addition I have tries to run the same scenario without afanasy and I see that ae_render works as expected (generates all required frames).

Any thoughts?

Thanks
