This phenomenon was reported by one user on the forum as far back as 7.6.4, but it is still manifesting in both 7.6.6 (production) and 7.7.1 (development).

Pattern description: Begins with TCPServerChannel errors in the logs, sometimes a day in advance of the restart. The root cause begins as “end of stream reached” and proceeds to “connection reset.” Then a series of messages appears as “uncaught throwable while processing chunk.” These continue until a message appears stating that “JVM appears hung.” At that point the gateway restarts.

I can send more detail but I wanted to get this on the board as an active problem in 7.7.1.

I think for starters we’ll need log files as far back as you have.

It sounds like you’re running out of memory for some reason though.
