Hello Udo, Even if it is an existing issue I'd still consider it critical for those cases on which there are unprocessed events on the persistent queue after a restart and the region takes long to recover... you can actually see millions of *NPEs* flooding the member's logs. My two cents anyway, it's up to the community to make the final decision. Cheers.
