Map update stopped in between

Hi,

I am using rtabmap latest pull on ROS kinetic.

With default settings and demo_robot_mapping.launch on a pre recorded rosbag, the mapping progresses nicely for 80-85 percent of the bag play. After that it just stops with no warning or error messages. However the visual odometry and laser scans are published and can be visualized on rviz.

 I thought this might be due to GTSAM,  so I changed Optimizer/Strategy to 0 and tried the optimization with TORO. With this the mapping progresses but the loop closure could not be detected and the following Warnings are continuously published.

The same bag file worked previously on ROS Indigo but since then I have upgraded to Kinetic and cannot revert back.
Can you suggest something.

Thanks
