After running a world completely stable for about 2 weeks I started having, roughly twice daily , a massive spike in RAM, CPU and HDD usage. RAM usage would go from ~500mb to more than 5gb usage eventually using up all the RAM the computer has.
The HDD would start thrashing, possibly because it was using Virtual Memory.
The computer would be mostly unusable at this point so it was hard to capture any information but I did manage to capture the screenshot below at the point of the crash.
I "solved" this problem by running the Ubuntu version of BDS on the exact same hardware and using the exact same world. Apart from the lower performance of Linux BDS (as noted elsewhere) I have not had a single issue.

Thank you for your report!
Crashes such as these are now logged automatically, this will therefore be investigated further by the development team internally.
Unless there is specific steps possible to reproduce the issue 100% of the time we cannot track issues such as this on the bug tracker, its impossible to know when a random/transient crash is resolved. All the best with the Linux install though, something I've found helps on my server is a nightly restart of the BDS process. It keeps the server running smoothly whereas a long running process seems to have more and more issues over time.

Thank you for your reply. These random crashes are always impossible to track down but I reported anyway in the hope that someone might have a solution or at least people can see what I did to solve.
