The issue is random, sometimes hangs at first call, sometimes you need 200 requests,, so changing the temperature just makes it more frequent, I make a ton of tests, and the only way to avoid the issue when processing big batches of images (thousands), is to set the keep_alive value to 0m, meaning that a fresh copy of the model is loaded for each new request....

I did 200 requests without seeing any problems. Server logs may aid in debugging.

@jluisreymejias please give the new 0.4.0 release a try and see if that resolves the sporadic hang problem you were seeing.
