> If your code is crashing more often than it is gracefully shutting down, you have a problem. You have this exactly backwards. If your software crashes rarely, you have a problem - when it does crash. Because then it's doing something you aren't routinely and thoroughly testing by doing it all the time. This is an old, counter-intuitive, but powerful idea - if you're not familiar with it, start with this paper: https://dslab.epfl.ch/pubs/crashonly.pdf https://dslab.epfl.ch/pubs/crashonly.pdf
