My account is probably a bit of an outlier as I have a lot of subscriptions and a lot of unread items (too many). Feedbin says I currently have 4093 unread items. Capy was handling this until recently. It seems getting up to 4000 tipped it over the edge. I cleaned up some items and dropped the unread count to 3594 but that didn't help. I assume because deletions are only applied at the end.

Next I also tried restarting my phone, aiming to have have as much free memory as possible, but this also didn't help.

Lastly I raced the sync to log out of my account, then logged in again. This fresh sync successfully completed.
