Second time I've seen the timeout in normal activities. Captured the stack trace this time. Customers and users will no doubt be confused by the appearance of the stack trace. Assuming the diagnostics are wanted by the developers, one is provided in this ticket.
The first time the 30 sec timeout was seen was during a heavy YCSB load stage. Hit ctrl-c to shut down the foreground mongod process and encountered the 30 second lock manager timeout while in-memory data was being flushed to disk.
The second time was on mongod startup, as a newly-ugraded (to 2.8.0-rc0) member of a replica set. Upon startup you can see an index build on a 5 million document collection (sharded with a single shard). Index build came in on the oplog. Stack trace occurs around the 50% mark.
Partial mongod log follows:
