After running fine for some hours, Glances consistently crashes with the following stack trace:

Additional context
Should a threading.Lock be used on these globals (https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html#lock-objects)? Alternatively, storing .keys() and accessing them with handling for when they are removed by another thread during iteration.
I have no idea if this works as intended but i.e.:

keys = list(data.keys())  # grab keys atomically 
output = {}
for key in keys:
  value = data.get(key, None)
  if value is None:
    continue
  if hasattr(value, '_asdict'):
    value = value._asdict()
  output[key] = value
return output
