Fix host metrics timeout and other improvements

Jun 10, 2026
Node.js3.8.1

Fixed

  • Continue reporting non-disk host metrics when a mount is frozen.

  • Fix host-metrics leaking zombie [timeout] processes in Alpine linux containers.

    Before this release AppSignal agent relied on a proper init process that reaps child processes killed by system timeout. Now the agent terminates and reaps unresponsive child processes in host-metrics collection and a subreaper is no longer required.

  • Ensure sendError ends its span even when the callback throws.
