Happened to me again today, for what it's worth.
 
This time, only one TW had been open during the entire browser session, and 
I'd just finished saving a rather large tiddler.  I clicked into another 
tiddler, made a minor edit, and then clicked "done" — at which point I got 
the "Out of Memory" dialog, saw that the backup had been saved, and realized 
both my TW and its backup had been wiped out to 0 bytes.  I tried recovering 
the TW from the cache (0 bytes) and using "View Source" to grab it before it 
was too late (empty file), but neither worked.
 
Sadly, I've been on the run this week and haven't made any manual back-ups 
of this TW (my main notebook), so I'll be spending Friday night trying to 
reconstruct everything I've lost since Monday morning.  :_(

The upshot is that I've just discovered that Tyler Rumkin updated his 
life-saving BackupOptionsPlugin (
http://rumkin.com/tools/tiddlywiki/#BackupOptionsPlugin) earlier this year 
to allow for rolling back-ups — meaning that I can now have two alternating 
back-ups created on save, preventing the heart-breaking loss I just 
experienced without having to have 200 back-ups trailing behind me.  :)
