Markus,
Sorry for the late answer, but was away on vacation and I saw your mail
today. I can confirm -test works as expected on my server. Im using it to
run melted with monit (http://mmonit.com/monit/) and was working for at
least a week without problems. I also use it with lots of "APPEND" and it
never died to me.
Maybe something about the docker container?
Regards,
Juan Martin
