Not exactly the topic you mentioned but as a side mark to crashes on
Mac OS X I want to add:

I am trying to implement life-logging [1] with Org-mode and GNU
Emacs. Therefore I created [2]. Even in this early stage, it ends up
with >150.000 lines in approx. 30 Org-mode files. Most of them are
in «*.org_archive» files though. (Further performance information:
[3])

On my notebook I am using GNU Linux (Ubuntu 11.04) with GNU Emacs
23.2.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.4). At home I've got
Mac OS X 10.5 with http://emacsformacosx.com/ (sorry, no detailed
version number since I am currently sitting in my office *g*).

I never noticed *any* crash of Emacs using Org-mode on my Linux
machine. But on my OS X box, I notice crashes many times. Mostly
when navigating (vertically or horizontally) in the Agenda view.

Maybe there is an (hidden?) issue with GNU Emacs on OS X (too).
