[Observium] ERROR! snmpbulkwalk exit by timeout.

Just upgraded Observium to 26.10.15295 (stable) and started getting this error on all of on a bunch of our Cisco devices

ERROR! snmpbulkwalk exit by timeout. If the device responds to other SNMP requests, try to decrease SNMP Max Repetitions on the device properties page or set to 0 to not use bulk snmp commands.

We've been running Observium for at least 5 years now and never seen this -- yes, I know I can follow the directions to fix it. Just wondering if something changed recently / between versions, etc.

Thanks
