No jobs seem to be running after some time running the instance

Describe the current behavior

After running for some time (less than an hour) some requests take long and actually end up with a server error.
One of those requests is the one to check jobs, it seems no new job is run (I have transcoding jobs waiting and no ffmpeg is running on the server so I guess they aren't launched anymore). Also some jobs like activitypub-http-fetcher are timing out according to the logs.

I also have errors about no being able to renew a job lock so it might be related.

Steps to reproduce

1. run for some time
2. check if jobs page is still accessible
3. once it isn't check logs for timeouts or other things showing no job is launched

Describe the expected behavior
