Greetings,

I've noticed this a couple times and last time this happened I was sure to upgrade Alertmanager to 0.1.1.  Alertmanager is using %80 - %125 of CPU, very sluggish to recognize silences/changes (slow AJAX responses I believe).  It's dumping the following to the log but not often:

{"level":"error","msg":"Error on notify: context deadline exceeded","source":"notify.go:152","time":"2016-04-28T17:03:03Z"}
{"level":"error","msg":"Notify for 2011 alerts failed: context deadline exceeded","source":"dispatch.go:238","time":"2016-04-28T17:03:03Z"}
{"level":"error","msg":"Error on notify: context deadline exceeded","source":"notify.go:152","time":"2016-04-28T18:11:31Z"}
{"level":"error","msg":"Notify for 2011 alerts failed: context deadline exceeded","source":"dispatch.go:238","time":"2016-04-28T18:11:31Z"}

A restart used to get things back to normal, but the behavior seems to return quickly.  Any clues here?

Running with debug logging, this seemed to be going through every past alert and marking things as resolved.  I have removed the SQLite DB and started fresh and I'm back to normal behavior.

This is one of the more explainable behaviors where we see issues. There are other ones less clear. 
The original plan was to wait until we've completed a quite elaborate storage layer that allows additional features.

Given the number of issue reports we will now rather work on a replacement that provides enough functionality for the current feature set.
