Hangs on multiple requests

[bailey-a]

I planned to use redbird in production to automatically proxy docker deployments, it works great, I really like the tech its exactly what I needed.

During load testing however, it can handle constantly refreshing small sites but any apps with larger API payloads will only work for the first 10-20 even 30 requests but then suddenly the requests stop coming though.

This causes all other containers using redbird to timeout, this is a huge platform failure.
A restart of redbird fixes the hang instantly but I cant have this happen in production. Doing the same testing on NGINX has no issues but I really need redbird for its programmability. Ubuntu, docker and the containers are all fine its only redbird that hangs.

It uses a lot of CPU power when it hangs but never recovers and always needs a reload to work again.

Any idea what might cause this?

Thanks in advance.
