I assume that it is coming from the fact that client is OpenLayers, it creates more concurrent requests than mapproxy can handle, and internal request queue timeout should be also larger, just as with wms backend query timeout?

The cache locking uses the global client timeout (from globals.http.client_timeout). But you should use the seed tool if you have sources that are that slow.

If I give same z/x/y then backend WMS request very wrong. From demo service it turnes out that the same tile is /tms/1.0.0/osm_EPSG900913/17/149681/184421.png . Here zoom is one different and y is inverted (which is typical difference between web mapping xyz and TMS). Can it be fixed with config? My grid is:

The OpenStreetMap tile server is not a TMS, but a copy of the Google Maps tiling schema. See http://mapproxy.org/docs/nightly/services.html#openlayers

This should work in your case: /tiles/osm_EPSG900913/18/149681/77722.png?origin=nw
