Geoprocessing Service Not Saving Edits on 2nd run

I have published a Python script as a geoprocessing service and am having issues saving edits. We are calling the service from our web app. The service processes an area and creates feature and table data based on a set of criteria. The first time an area is processed, the script runs successfully. However, when a 2nd area is processed, the area is processed successfully but fails when saving. If I then restart the GP service and rerun the 2nd area - it processes and saves successfully. A 3rd area would then fail. Any ideas on things to try here?


plog("Opening Edit Session")
edit = arcpy.da.Editor(sdeConnection)
edit.startEditing(VERSIONED)
edit.startOperation()

{lot of operations}

plog("Finished Appending") - gets here
edit.stopOperation()
edit.stopEditing(True)
plog("Finished Editing") - doe
