Now is probably a good time to check your memory; the kernel should

checks) , and the fact that ImageMagick was using a large amount of
memory at the time, there's a good chance that your memory is flakey.

sudo /usr/sbin/memtest all 32 --log <snip> 32 runs completed. 0 errors detected. Total runtime: 51719 seconds.

Which of course doesn't guarantee that the memory is good. Perhaps I'll try on another machine/OS combination.

Cheers,
