Hello team, I'd like to propose including the *fix [1]* for *GEODE-7079 [2]* in release 1.10.0. Long story short: a *NullPointerException* can be continuously thrown and flood the member's logs if a serial event processor (either *async-event-queue* or *gateway-sender*) starts processing events from a recovered persistent queue before the actual region to which it was attached is fully operational. Note: *no events are lost (even without the fix)* but, if the region takes a while to recover, the logs for the member can grow pretty quickly due to the continuously thrown *NPEs.* Best regards.
