See https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=98925 for the question.

This is causing decisions not to be reported to SWF and "hangs" the workflows.

Finally resolved by changing how we get the list of events for an execution. We are now pulling the list of event in reverse and iterating it until we find the id of the event we are looking for. This reduces the number of round trips back to AWS since the event that we are looking for (in this case) is near the end of the list.
