Several months ago I have a Drupal CMS site Mercado Pago Payment working correctly. However, in the last few days I'm having a timeout when invoking the create_preference($preference) method using the version 0.5.2 of the bookstore. This happens intermittently.
Pinging from the server to api.mercadopago.com I get:
