Frequent migrations causing trouble for paid actors' users...

❗ Guys, was something recently released or changed at Apify related to actors resources, etc.? I have an actor that has been running fine for a while, but in the past few days, migrations have become frequent, causing issues for some of my paid actor users. ⚠️

I haven't heard about any changes on the platform, and we haven't received any similar complaints from other users regarding this issue. Can you please share some URLs to your runs on the platform? I will check them and share them with our team.

What do you mean with "migrations"?

@Louis Deconinck It's the process where a running actor container gets migrated from one host to another and hence loosing the state (the chance of this happening to a running actor is correlated to how long it has been running) https://docs.apify.com/academy/expert-scraping-with-apify/migrations-maintaining-state

Learn about what Actor migrations are and how to handle them properly so that the state is not lost and runs can safely be resurrected.
