Actually, this is kind of the opposite of what I want.  I want a human
to have to restart the service, because otherwise it doesn't present
enough pain for the problem to be fixed more permanently.  I have
situations where I semi-regularly restart a bloating service, but that's
about as heinous as I'll get.

Once you get used to automated systems propping up your daemons, the
decay spreads until you encounter a serious intractable downtime event.
I need the relevant people to feel panic when this happens.
