"while running my saryn i tried out venom recently un improved and then maxed, i didn't specifically time the ticks but on my screen the time in between the ticks didn't seem to lessen from min to max lvl, what did change was the # of spores. and i'm still pretty sure that the number of ticks per second does not increase but i'll be the first to admit that i haven't done very in depth tests."

Ah. The time between ticks doesn't decrease, it's just the number of ticks that pop-up at once that does. This is what I specifically tested, and then timed how long the damage went for.

I'll have to test it on Ospreys and other units like that sometime to see what I get.

"i'm not sure if this is a bug or not but when fighting the boss of pluto (i forget his name) when i used venom on him i was only generating 4 damage per node as oposed the 10 damage that should have shown up."

He may have damage reduction on that body part. I know my Acrid does less damage against him than usual.
