Hello Christian, Honestly we run into a lot of issues and bugfixes after this patch was pushed, I don't think it's even possible to backport this without breaking the 2.4, there are a lot of corner cases and I don't want to break this branch which is pretty stable now. 2.5 already runs with this architecture for a while in some places which make it more robust but it was not easy to get there. Also the next LTS version which is 2.6 is almost there! What kind of crashes are you experimenting? It's supposed to help with the possible OOM on reload when too much memory was consumed by the master. -- William Lallemand
