We have experienced JVM-crashes when using the G1 garbagecollection on java  
7  
(-XX:+UseG1GC)

We are running ES 0.20.6

# 

# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

# 

# SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f84f5198de8, pid=21673, tid=140204359747328

# 

# JRE version: 7.0\_25-b15

# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (23.25-b01 mixed mode

linux-amd64 compressed oops)

# Problematic frame:

# J

org.elasticsearch.common.trove.impl.hash.TObjectHash.insertKey(Ljava/lang/Object;)I

# 

Is this a known issue?
