Does anyone know what this kind of exception is on iOS 8?
=== from crash report ===
Exception Type: EXC_RESOURCE
Exception Subtype: WAKEUPS
Exception Message: (Limit 150/sec) Observed 206/sec over 300 secs
Triggered by Thread: 14
Seems to only happen on iOS 8... Our app is shut down quite randomly at arbitrary intervals with this exception..
Any clues are welcome. Thanks!
Your app is sending a wakeup command to a particular thread in the app quite often - apparently an average of 206 times a second. Background threads in iOS 8 have a hard limit on how many times you can run a sleep/wake cycle on each thread per second, and having a high count here is usually an indication that something is wrong / inefficient in your thread management.
Without seeing your code, my recommendation is that you check your C++ algorithms for sleep/wake calls, or multithread the background process to start new threads each cycle.
