No, it is not (yet) a known issue. What are the contents of your 
__repository__ directory like when this happens ?
What is the Chandler process size (see Task Manager) ?
How much free diskspace do you have when this happens ?

A workaround is to run without mvcc, using the --nomvcc command line arg.
