Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior:
Time time starting Logstash with a pipeline that uses fingerprint the following error happens:

Steps to reproduce:

Please include a minimal but complete recreation of the problem,
including (e.g.) pipeline definition(s), settings, locale, etc. The easier
you make for us to reproduce it, the more likely that somebody will take the
time to look at it.

1. from fresh 7.17.14Logstash installation
2. run the following pipeline:

input {
 generator {
 	message => "sample test message"
 	count => 10000000
 }
}

filter {
 fingerprint {
   source => "message"
   target => "fingerprint"
   method => "MD5"
   key    => "epoch-1ki"
 }
}

output {
 #stdout {codec => dots}
 sink {}
}

3. WARNING the failing on local test happens on 30% of the starts, and happen quite close to the start of the processing
