Public bug reported:

I deploy my OpenStack with VMware driver, one nova-compute connect to
VMware deployment, there are about 3000 VMs in VMware deployment. I use
mysql.

The method of InstanceList.get_by_host rasie rpc timeout error when
ComputeManager.init_host() and _sync_power_states periodic task execute.

Looks like a performance issue. currently, one nova-compute host map to
the whole VMware deployment that maybe contain several clusters in nova
VMware driver. When InstanceList.get_by_host execute in ComputeManager,
it indicate that nova-compute will execute a rpc call to nova-
conducutor, nova-conductor will fetch a lots of instances in the whole
VMware deployment in once, in my case , it's 3000 instances. The long
time SQL query maybe lead to the nova-conductor rpc timeout.

PS: 
vSphere 5.1 now allows 100 hosts and 3000 powered on VMs.
vSphere 6 now allows 1000 hosts and 10,000 powered on VMs.
