We had similar crashes in 2007-2009 (on SUP720-3B). After several *long* TAC cases, it turned out that we hit a couple of bugs. I can't find the bug IDs at the moment, but according to my email archive, the fixes were included in SXH4. I'd recommend trying a more recent SXH build as a lot of issues have been fixed since SXH2a. Or, if you're comfortable with bigger upgrade steps: we're running SXI3a now, which has been more stable in our environment than SXH has been. However, as always with bugs & features in IOS, YMMV. By the way, the root cause in our case had to do with interrupt masking; it was mainly triggered by non IP packets from directly connected network segments. Our case was only reproducible by replaying actual traffic captures, not with "synthetic" IP traffic.
