reson~ appears to be crashing
A complex patcher with 4-5 C externals, and 1 java external is crashing, apparently in the reson~ perform routine.
Is this necessarily a problem with reson~ (in which case, I’ll avoid using the object), or could the crash be coincidental (perhaps a bomb in the private externals)?

Could you provide a patch to reproduce? What is your vector size?
Thanks,
Vector size is 4096.
Sorry, but I can’t find steps to recreate — it’s a complex application that’s crashing once or twice a day, after 1-20 minutes, but not reliably. The crash, though, occurs consistently in reson_perform_unroll + 744.
I isolated the subpatcher containing the reson filters, but couldn’t recreate the crash after 30 minutes. But similarly, I’ve been running the application itself for 30 minutes now without a crash.
This is an application for a live event end of April, so it has to meet minimum requirements of stability. If I could assure myself the resons~ are indeed the source of the crash, I’d remove the reson filters from the app.
Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?
At this point, everyone’s a suspect: my own externals, or maybe a problem with the current OS.
