What OS? What libcurl version?

I really think you should start figuring out the "goes down siliently" part.
Why exactly does is stop. When you know that I think you have a better chance
to understand or figure out what libcurl's part in that might be.

Personally I like using 'strace' or similar to figure out such things, but in
a server environment like this it might be tricky.

And no, I don't have any sensisble ideas why this happens, but then JVMs are
not within my area of expertise.
