We have had to continually monitor and restart pystatsd. After an aparently random time interval, pystatds will start sending zero for all values.

It appears that the server portion does not maintain a robust network connection. An strace showed that the failed pystatsd did not report any recvfrom calls. I am guessing that a socket handling exception was raised and unhandled.
