Hi again I have now simplified how we interact with curl so it is only started and stopped once in the whole application lifecycle. This means it should be guaranteed there is only one single worker polling curl_multi_perform and nothing else.
I have also recompiled using -O0 instead of -Os. Would this be enough? It is probably possible to add -g as well if that would help so I am awaiting your confirmation on if that is necessary. The numbers of crashes are growing rapidly in Crashlytics so I am quite concerned. The common entry point is always curl_multi_perform but then it crashes in various places the top ones being: curl_hash_add, curl_connecthost, darwinssl_connect_step2, curl_hostcache_prune, curl_disconnect, create_conn, darwin_ssl_connect_common. I understand this is impossible to answer with this little info so all pointers on what do change or add are welcome and I will try to include it in the next release which we will have to make quite soon. I have never managed to make it crash myself and I have been testing a lot.
