Hi Scott, it will hopefully turn out to be a side-effect of issue #2422 ( https://github.com/arangodb/arangodb/issues/2422 <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Farangodb%2Farangodb%2Fissues%2F2422&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGgZ3QGbRTwJDfxzdT0oOizlmeyow>) which will be fixed in 3.1.18 (the next release). It would be very helpful if you could try that release when it comes out. I expect it to be released this week. Best regards Jan
