Ask HN: Is anyone having problems with Couchbase?

We use Couchbase at my current gig and I have discovered a few problems with it that a disconcerting. One, if the bucket size reaches about 70% capacity, the database will basically in effect become unresponsive as new writes come in. Second, if the views require non trivial changes then the database becomes unresponsive.

The position from Couchbase is basically, retry and back off.
