Jay, an account rep will be sending you my response, as detailed for your situation. But the gist of it is:
This issue comes up usually for one of three reasons:
Firstly, if your project has tests that are less than 200 VUs, I wouldn’t expect that to max out your workstation or the server connection limits, but please make sure that your computer meets system requirements (minimum may not be enough for your test). Also, if you’re not already, can you try running LoadUIWeb with no other apps open that what is necessary for the test? What is the CPU use like in this case?
Secondly, are you using a web proxy, corporate gateway, VPN, or firewall between the machine(s) where you’re are conducting the test (the controller workstation and your remote agents) and the target server. There are a few articles online (about multiple products, not just LoadUIWeb) which seem to indicate that other network components (and their own timeout or maximum connection limits) might have something to do with your issue:

If the results of a slowly ramped up test show increasing degradation at a certain point in the test without showing any “connection timeout” issues in the log afterwards, this points to your server getting overloaded.
Hope this helps!
This issue comes up usually for one of three reasons:
the load is too high for the machine(s) that are running the load test
the infrastructure cannot handle the load between the load generator(s) and the target server
the server/app actually can’t handle this load
