[PERFORM] Unable to connect to server - Mailing list pgsql-performance

Hi,

today i head a issue with pgsql 9.3, a lot of clients complained that they are unable to connect to the server.
when i have checked the logs i sow a lot of
FATAL:  canceling authentication due to timeout

server configuration is:
Ubuntu 16.04
128G RAM
RAID 10 4X 2T HDD
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v2 @ 3.50GHz

clients are connecting remotely to the server, maybe i have misconfigured someting in postgresql setup.
