 Affected is the current HEAD of the master branch.

 The scheduling of the updateindex was stopped w/o any exception/warning
 whatsoever.

 Positive about this is that the other scheduled task were not affected.

 First steps:

 1. add some logging to threads of the thread-pool
 2. maybe, use other ways to study this behavior
 3. implement a solution based on the facts found in the steps above.
