[R] parallel::makeCluster does not finish

Question to parallel and cluster package developers,

we have a serious problem with the cluster usage.

OS Windows Server 2016 64Bit
R-Version 3.6.1
parallel 3.6.1
Cluster 2.1.0

Sometimes, the cluster operation does not finish, one cluster Rscript.exe will
never finish,
(or wait until timeout of 2592000...???)

In more than 90% all works fine,
but with some more parallel R-Sessions on the same machine and heavy load,
one cluster process does not finish sometimes
(I suppose, the final "ready" message of the process will be sent to
early, the cluster "server" is not ready to receive....?)

Our R-Code:
   cl <- parallel::makeCluster(8, outfile = "", port = 64414)
    registerDoParallel(cl)
    Cluster.Res <- foreach(i = 1:Error.Dim.Selected[2] , combine=cbind)
%dopar% {
....
    }

    stopCluster(cl)

parallel Cluster-process was started with:

C:\PROGRA~1\R\bin\x64\Rscript.exe
--default-packages=datasets,utils,grDevices,graphics,stats,methods -e
"parallel:::.slaveRSOCK()" MASTER=localhost PORT=64414
OUT="" SETUPTIMEOUT=120 TIMEOUT=2592000 XDR=TRUE

Any idea or help

Thanks
Roman
