Engine keep restarting - error "Spawning KillerThread"

We experience problems with automatic restart of the Qlik Sense Engine, the logfile Exit_Engine.log contains this info:

Severity Timestamp ProcessId ThreadId Message

INFO 20190729T101422.071+0200 7792 8020 Terminating service

This happens several times every day. 

Anyone with good ideas what to check? What can cause this behavior?

That message is normal entry when the service is getting stopped, I would look into the engine / trace folder and check the system_engine logs, also if the service is getting kill all over sudden then I would check the windows event logs ( application and system).
