Problem solved. In case others might have a similar issue in the future, here what it is:

The issue was related to "max_stack_depth" in the postgresql config. We had to increase it to 9MB. I think it's because we have many hosts that appeared to be offline during our network maintenance (thus many alerts to process!).

Also, disabling those two unused components

"SNMP Trap Sender"
"Global Event Handlers"

might have helped.

Certainly disabling those meant less logging.

Anything else to add about the issue or are we ready to lock it up?
