Currently most of hosts are ping test only. I can put more hosts on this hobbit server. 822 hosts is taking 42 seconds.

Answer I don't know is how many more hosts it can handle ?

A lot. Network tests are one thing; you can tweak the hobbitping or fping options to speed them up, and/or play with the concurrency and timeout settings for the bbtest-net tool. Which of these you use depends on your mix of tests.

How can I find what hosts are causing DNS lookup failures ?

See the bbtest-net man-page:

   --dnslog=FILENAME
          Log failed hostname lookups to the file FILENAME.
      FILENAME should be a full pathname.
