cloudwatch_exporter: Scraping stops working from time to time

We have deployed the last version of the cloudwatch-exporter. We noticed that it stops getting logs from AWS sometimes and never recovers, having to restart it to fix it. What could be the cause? Maybe the size of the response? I included some logs below:
