Hello Heimir, I believe this is solved (since we spoke on the phone about it), but I wan't to complete the thread to help others (more below)...

The default mode for SNF uses "cellular peer-server techology". When more than once instance of SNF is active then one of the instances will tend to act as a server for others that become active during a short period. Under moderate loads this allows the system to be much more efficient with resources since the rulebase is loaded much less frequently. The instances of SNF self-organize to share resources. Persistent mode essentially tricks one of the instances into staying alive forever so that all of the other instances can act as clients. There are a few other tricks added as well to make things much more efficient. HOWEVER - if the persistent instance fails to launch or goes down for some reason then the remaining instances revert to peer-server mode as a fail-safe. In the log above it seems that the new persistent instance was not configured correctly and so it failed (ERROR_RULE_AUTH). The other instances continued to process messages normally (though I can see very slowly due to the load and the failed persistent instance!).
