Tbh HW issues was also my first thought but
since we see these crashes on two servers running on separate hardware
I believe it is rather unlikely that separate hardware is failing
after upgrading to dnsdist 1.9.8.

Nonetheless I can not rule out hardware errors even if it is happening 
on two separate hardware servers.

If crashes continue we will likely try a downgrade to 1.9.7 and see if 
the crashes go away.

Thank you for your input.

best regards,
Christoph
