I've been using a little of MAX the last month, most basically to convert SI data, apply materials using some plugins and rendering (plugins only available in MAX, the only reason why we are using MAX) and I haven't had stability problems. It feels heavy and slow, it takes a lot of time to just start up (on an SSD) and it's a really pita to work with, but haven't had that many crashes.
Sometimes It may become unresponsive when having it on background, but you need to be patient and wait for Max to wake up.
