Do you see any other issues with the cache system that may shed some light? Thanks for the response. I have not noticed anything else in the cache system - but maybe that is because i am not sure where and what to look for. Given that there has been no failure for almost 6 days now, I am assuming it was some kind of temporary slowdown. What would be the upper limit or downside of increasing the max credits value since in my current scenario there is no way of measuring how the credits are being used?
