Maybe we need to build you a little bot that listens for new emails coming
in and if certain keywords like "crash, memory and inexplicable" are hit,
it automatically sends out an email suggesting Process Monitor :)
But that's probably a https://xkcd.com/1205/ problem...

I had the problem of a crash on "saving particles" in a scene that was very
heavy in frozen ice trees.
Deleting those fixed the problem, but I needed them, so what I ended up
doing was exporting them as a cache and then loading them in through the
cache node.
Took a bit longer to evaluate, but worked. I could not figure out the
actual root cause of the issue.
Do you have a lot of frozen particles in your scene Paul?
