We had issues with that a while back, and what was odder was that we weren't even using it; we had Remedy configured not to use the assignment engine.
If I recall correctly, our issue had to do with old, bad data stuck in the Application Pending form combined with assignment engine rules that had been disabled in the Assignment Engine Administration Console. It seems that someone had disabled some rules in an attempt to stop getting tickets auto-assigned without understanding how to simply turn off the assignment engine. Then, when the assignment engine tried to process certain requests in Application Pending, it wasn't finding a matching rule and was crashing because of that. In fact, now that I think about it, I think it was still trying to autoassign tickets for some reason, even though we had configured it not to, so we ultimately just commented that process out of armonitor.cfg so that it simply didn't run in the first place. I don't know if that could be related to what you're seeing, but if you think it might, I can try to dig up the details again for you if you'd like.
