Could you enable traceoptions for the following components:
mfea4, igmp, pimsm4:

        traceoptions {
            flag all {
                disable: false
            }
        }

Then, please save the XORP log to a file from the moment it is
started and send me this log once you start experiencing the
problem.

Usually, now long time does it take to start seeing the timeout
messages? Also, was there anything happening around that time (e.g.,
increase of the number of routes, etc).

Finally, how/what do you count as multicast routes? The output of
commands like "show route table ipv4 multicast final" or
"show pim join" (or something else).
