Cause of zookeeper timeouts

We are only seeing this occasionally, maybe once a week or so, but we get these exceptions in 0.8.2.1


java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.apache.kafka.common.errors.TimeoutException: Failed to update metadata after 60000 ms.

        at org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.KafkaProducer$FutureFailure.<init>(KafkaProducer.java:437)

        at org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.KafkaProducer.send(KafkaProducer.java:352)

        at org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.KafkaProducer.send(KafkaProducer.java:248)

I don't see any errors in the zookeeper or kafka logs, what can be the cause of this? Should I bump the timeout up even higher?

Thanks,
Sean
