I'm using different programs to perform the walk (net-snmp snmpwalk, MG-Soft, silvercreek...). I think in my case snmpd becomes stuck while getting installed software table - querying rpm database. Also, I found on net-snmp mailing list, that their getnext implementation is inefficient - the agent retrieves value of the variable even if it is not in the view. So for now, I had to recompile snmp without host MIB support.
