[snap] Rocketchat Server crashes multiple times a day

Description

Over the last two days I have seen an increase in crashes of our self-hosted rocketchat instance. it has gone from once every few weeks, to 4+ times a day. Both times before it crashed today we noticed a get command to /api/v1/user.presence? log snippets below. Other than these entries we have been struggling to find a reason why this instance has been crashing.

Hi!

Not sure about the workload you have, but I always suggest, for any workload, docker instead of snap.

Have you checked the machine requirements? Is there enough resources?
