cjq0 on a regular typically at least once a week, one particular cronjob sometimes (needs a kill -9) depending on load, the standby database needs a reboot every couple of weeks and one or two session processes every four to five months where after 2h I stop trying to distinguish between crash and whatever else causes this and reboot the database in the evening after the backup has run.

Ok, when I say "crash" I mean one process using up all cpu load and not finishing within a few hours or over the weekend.

Lots of Greetings!
