I do have detailed syslog data, though, and 10 minutes before chronyd died clamav also died due to an error that is related to an out of memory condition. There's some other evidence (consul logs on other boxes) indicating that other instances were having trouble reaching the problem instance. Something was up with the box, obviously.

I have commited a fix to trigger the error only when the rate of dispatched timeouts is higher than 100 per second. That should not happen in the slow execution in low-memory conditions.
