I have this same issue when I have a lot of objects under an animated 
controller,  I have Vray installed, I have not tested it without yet.

Subject: Re: Fcurve editor crashing soft

yep, i am having this problems for a long time. for couple of soft releases. 
but i never could prove that with a proper repro scene. maybe now its the time 
to investigate (solids, soft devs?)

  Hi Matt

  I'm pretty sure I unloaded every plugin item except the renderer itself, and 
the freeze still happened.
  So, it's either the renderer plugin, or the renderer integration framework in 
Softimage.

  Thanks

    Spot on guys! Thanks! We are using an Arnold work group and disconnecting 
from it does solve this issue. ( amazing! The renderer would have been the last 
place I would have looked to fix this.) 

    We're currently looking into the most effective work around for this little 
chest nut. Seems unloading the Arnold plugins from the work group is enough to 
set things straight. But does anyone know if it's a specific Arnold plug in 
that's causing this? Is it Arnold lights? Arnold renderer? Arnold shaders? Or 
do we need to unload them all?

    Thanks again.

      I have seen a case of this before. The entry of numeric values in the 
fcurve editor froze Softimage, but only when a certain renderer was installed. 

      I had a repro scene from a customer, and the only way I could fix it was 
to freeze part of the op stack.
