Ended up raising ticket to Atlassian, solution was to move plugins to a separate folder and Disable them in the DB.

What is the version you are upgrading to? I don't see an 8.13.14 version at https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftware/jira-software-8-13-x-release-notes-1018783360.html

8.13, my mistake

I have never seen this before.  Does turning off rate limiting rectify the issue? https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/improving-instance-stability-with-rate-limiting-983794911.html

[draganvucanovic]

We are running the  Atlassian Jira Project Management Software,no rate limit
