TLDR Chetan reported server crashes after running for 5-10 days, suspecting a container lifetime issue. Jason identified the trouble as a search-caused crash and advised an upgrade to 0.25.0.

my longer-running servers seem to be dying with this error after 5-10 days - is there a standard lifetime a container should be running for before restarts / errors?

No, that’s a crash stack trace during search, which is causing the restart. Could you upgrade to 0.25.0?

thanks for building this, it's pretty awesome. elastic search confused the heck out of me (albeit probably do-able), and algolia would have bankrupted me.
