I'm on a Pi as well & mine seems to be working ok.  I've not actually had this problem happen to me before so I'm not really sure what causes it.

I poll for Fido (3 hubs), fsx, micro & metro and then dove w/ qwkpoll and it just kind of zips through the process.  I do reboot nightly after shutting Mystic down properly to back up the bbs directory, not sure if that is what's helping me?

** nighboot.sh **
#!/bin/bash
export mysticbbs=/home/pi/mystic
cd /home/pi/mystic
../mis shutdown
sleep 10
../mis poll killbusy all
rm -f /home/pi/mystic/semaphore/*
../mutil maint.ini -NOSCREEN
tar cf - /home/pi | 7z a -si /tmp/nrbbs-`date +%F`.tar.7z
/home/pi/.google-drive-upload/bin/gupload -q /tmp/nrbbs-`date +%F`.tar.7z
mkdir /mnt/nas
mount -t cifs -o user=bbs,pass= //nas/Data /mnt/nas
mv /tmp/nrbbs-`date +%F`.tar.7z /mnt/nas/Jay\ Backups/BBS/
umount /mnt/nas
rmdir /mnt/nas
shutdown -r now "Nightly Maintenance"

** main.ini **
PurgeMessageBases  = true
PackMessageBases   = true
PackFileBases      = true
FileSort           = true
LinkMessages       = true
PurgeUserBase      = true
PackUserBase       = true


My only other thought may be a misbehaving bink hub that those with the issue are connecting to that I'm not that causes Mystic to crash?

.... Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.
